This reminds me of the end of the movie Gone in 60 Seconds. Where they have the beat up GT500and they are going to resore it.

hopefully i don't get flamed for this, but i kinda like the idea of an off center stripe. also, the pony emblem to match the stripe, make sure to keep that! it will be very original, and it will look hot in the black grill.

Gloss black with a double, darker green stripe down the middle...I hate off centered stripes...Then add some 18 inch black buillit wheels with a chrome lip. Louvers would be cool too with the rear window one to go with it...oh and 20% tints... That car would scream "IM BADDASS"

Didn't get a ton done today as I was working by myself. I started chemically stripping the paint and got about 75% done.
Here's some pictures of before, during and after.
I applied the paint stipper gel with a paint brush. Starting with the roof and hood.
5 minutes in.
About 10 minutes in.
It's so cool how it just pops up!
We're getting there.
I just thought this looked groovy!
Hoods looking good but still working on the trouble spots on the fender and doors.
And I ran out of paint stripper. It was too late to go get some more so I will finish it up tomorrow or Tuesday.
A big pile of paint chips.
Not nearly as exciting as the first phase but I feel i got a lot done today.
Stay tuned for future episodes!
