Default Phew, missed this site--

Wow, i completly forgot about this site...thanks to the extreme busyness of college!

But, i went home last weekend and the buldging beast beneath a blue tarp at my parents house reminded me of what i miss so much. I had a long talk with my pops on my way up here this weekend and i'm pumped up again to work on my car---to bad i can't until winter break. I left it at about 80% prep for paint. I'm hoping to block the whole car during break and spray her down...then it's time to continue saving money for the summer in which i plan on changing to disc brakes, and doing some engine work.

In the mean time, i'll actually try to stick around and offer paint advice as this is all i know lol...

good to be back

Good to have you back Ivan. What color have you decided to paint her? How much longer are you going to be in school? And where are you going to school? What's your major?

I'm going jet black, with my already black int...already picked up the paint--friend got me a great deal, 2 gallons (more than enough) for only $20 =)

This is my first semester at Wake Forest, here at NC. Gonna be a here for 4 years, but thankfully its only a 2 hour drive home, so i can go back and forth as need be--except that i don't have a car so i have to hitch rides. I'm planning on majoring in business management with a minor in international studies

Good for you. Get all the required basic courses out of the way first. 4 years sounds like a long time, but trust me, it will go by fast if you keep your nose in the books.
Black is an all-time favorite choice of mine for vintage stangs. Hard as hell to keep clean, but classy looking.

Wow what a great price. Soaring is right 4 years sounds like a long time, but it goes pretty fast.
