Right outta the paint booth

Fresh paint! Looks amazing can't wait to see it sanded and buffed. Thought at least some of you would like to see..

[Indian113]

Wow! Bet that will really POP out in the sun. What color is it?

[62lwbc10]

Thanks. Color is Viper Red. Sprayed over a white primer so it really pops. Glasurit base and clear. Very expensive materials but worth it

[mongocanfly]

One thing for sure..its RED..will look great when done

[joedoh]

looooove red trucks. love em. never own em, can only seem to get three shades of green, but someday..

looks just bright enough!

[Foot Stomper]

Looks great! Nice and straight too! Nothing replaces quality coatings...nothing!!

[62lwbc10]

Hey thanks, just finishing a two year, 1500 hour frame off nut and bolt restoration. Was quite the saga but it's finally coming together. Tons of time spent making sure everything is straight, thanks for noticing. The big back window conversion went beautifully, if anyone has any questions about that I'm happy to help. It was actually one of the easier parts of the job. I agree with you about quality coatings. I learned the hard way that you can't skimp on paint materials.

Wow, that looks great right out of the gun. Definitely post some pics after it's done and out in the sun!

62lwbc10, I "LIKE" it. I painted my 302 (for us old guys, most say 5.0) V8 Miata, '95 Viper Red. So, I'm definitely a fan. When you cut and buff, it's going to be a "knock your eyes out" sorta deal!!!

[dsraven]

is that solid clour or metalic?

[Dan in Pasadena]

Wow 62, looks fantastic. I absolutely LOVE it. Huge congratulations. I'm over the moon about my new red paint job too. Can't wait to watch it go together.

Man, red IS expensive. Holy moly.

Wondered the same thing while viewing the shot taken from the right rear of the truck. It has a sort of candy apple appearance.

[62lwbc10]

Yeah a lot of people saying that and I agree it does have a candyish look about it. But it's just a solid color, no metallic.

[62lwbc10]

Door after sanding up to 4000 and then polished. Not too shabby.

[1project2many]

Daaamn that's nice. That truck's gonna look good.

[DPete]

Nice, I'm just a little ahead of that stage, red also only darker. After looking at primer forever the paint is light at the end of the tunnel, now you can really see what it's going to be.

^^^ Mine too. Also darker but I LOVE Viper red.

I just worrried I might tire of the bright colors as I intend to keep my truck long term (til I croak, and I'm hoping that's long term!)


^^^This was not cut or polished, right out of the gun.^^^

Wow. that looks amazing. I did a 70 SS Chevelle a few years back in Viper red. Prettiest car I ever had. Course, I couldn't afford Glasurit, but even still, that is an awesome color of red. Just enough orange to keep it from looking lipsticky.
Bravo.

I don't know if this old link will work, but it sure was a pretty chevelle.
