so what are you going to do about wheel wells and underbody? beat the rust off and spray w/ glossy black?

 

[99SportX]

That looks real good. There is a lot of stuff painted that shouldn't be....oh well.

 

[expo5.0]

i'll do whatever seems really necessary. as ya'll know i'm not about to start babying it or not driving it just because i painted it. what the underside looks like isn't of any real importance to me quite yet (if it ever will be)

it will be sprayed with some black stuff, but nothing like what i'm sure you'd want me to do.

the stuff thats painted that shouldn't be isn't a big deal to me, but your right.

i know everyones disappointed its so old skool, but its what i wanted.

 

[expo5.0]

just some other pictures of paint jobs i liked

 

[99SportX]

Old skool is kool. I like the paint. I don't know what everybody is yippin' about being disappointed.

Same here. I think it looks great. Also, it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. If it comes out the way you want, then it came out right.

I like the flames you've done. Not too complicated, not too fancy. I've seen some paintjobs with flames that must have taken weeks and weeks to paint. Too much. Keep it simple. That looks the best in the end.

damn expo i like it alot. i dont know what people are *****ing about. flames look gooooood. nice color scheme too

 

[expo5.0]

[DocVijay]

I've posted quite a bit, its been a while though, had a 91' then a 93' now I've got the mounty. Havn't had much time for the truck tell this past month or so. As for the FTW get-togethers havent really heard about them, maybe I can make it to the next one.

 

[expo5.0]

hey, i'll let you know on that stuff next time something comes around. Probably be going to some shows in the near future sort of as a group.

would be cool if you could come out, and its always nice to have other people to help with mods etc. we all help each other out. like darryl did with my paint, or i did with mikeknott's stereo.

 

[BBQ_HotDogs]

Yall did good. How many coats of clear will she get now? Or do they do that anymore?

 

[clarkkent]

hey expo.5.0

yo bro, just painted my computer case check it out.

"masked"

"taped flames"

and my monitor. the tower is the same blue from my truck and the flames will be white with airbrushed green.

 

[expo5.0]

that looks sick man, not sure why you did it but its sick. i guess i'm about to do my new driver (golf lol) so i can't really talk.

not sure on # of coats, but they are on there now, it just isn't buffed yet.

 

[99SportX]

That things going to look badass. I probably should join the MN chapter at FTW. Someday......

clarkkent- I was thinking of doing the same thing to a computer. I need to practice painting before I try anything on my truck, so I was going to paint the monitor with my body color.

 

[typhoon43]

lOOKING awesome!

 

[BBQ_HotDogs]

I wish we could all get togeather and do a big golf outing. I need to knock the dust off of my bertha's.
