There will be a small amount of peel. Only about as much as on a new car.

CORRECTION
There will be very little peel, if any. This thing is pretty slick!

EX5023 came home today (temporarily). I brought it home so I could install the dirvetrain before the car gets sanded and buffed and the hood installed again. I'll try to get all of the trim back on it over the weekend as well. Bowling Green is creeping up on my deadline.

Hey, the car and that motor have matching colors!


That's not buffed yet? Man that looks good from here! Nice paint work!


Okay, I'm about a 1,000 miles away and I do wear glasses, but that is some good looking paint work!


Tom

The paint did come out very good. Once it's sanded and buffed, it'll really pop.

See you in Bowling Green, Tom.

Brett:

In looking at the picture, is that car directly underneath a garage door?

Yep. Got them crammed in there pretty tight at the moment. Seven cars. (It won't come down)

Had some fun today. It's the weekend, so it's what I call "mytime" sometimes. It's a whole lot more fun when you get to work on your own cars.

That's it! 40k mile car in need of paint, badly. Inside is very nice but the outside needs attention. Dominic's motor will go into it as well as your transmission.
