We are helping to rebuild one now that was "restored????" this is what it looked like a couple of months before the restoration. looled good but was a amatuer job

Really, he would be awesome to sit down and have a chat with!!

Heck yeah! I know I want one of my truck like that too! Sure beats the dust blowing off the tires when I open the door.

Here is member 69trk's truck with this color on it, thanks for the pic.

Also, remember when I said I needed proper lighting, I meant it, I got the color a little dark, but outside you can not tell. really hard to spray a transparent color into all those little nooks and crannies with out the proper stuff.

do you have a color code for this red/copper? or is it custom from that shop?

72blueshark · 06-03-2012, 04:27 AM

no?

Thought I would give you guys a bit of a update on the car. She does still get driven, but not a whole lot. got to see her last weekend, my heart melted a littel. I love this car so much. But she still looks gorgeous!!! even with the dust on her.

**Dieselwrencher** · 09-28-2012, 06:05 PM

Awesome. I bet it was nice to see it in it's garage too.

FrankieD · 10-02-2012, 08:08 AM

Just read your build nice work, great looking Camero but somebody needs to buy that car a cover would hate to see the paint messed up after all the hard work you put into it.
