Re: Update on my hi-miler Z project
Great job Andrew. Sure would be great to see you be able to drive the wheels off it and really have a chance to enjoy it.
Good luck. |

Re: Update on my hi-miler Z project
I think it came out great. =D>
To ourselves, our own cars will always need new paint but to others not so much. Drive & enjoy her for a while before you spend money on paint....JMHO...was it a cloudy day when you took the pictures? I'm not seeing the screaming need for a repaint. I think I see what you see. The shade changes from panel to panel?. At least your rockers don't look like mine! The front part of my rockers and the front generally look like I've been hosed with rocks I've got so many chips...Yikes! :cheers: Tom |
Re: Update on my hi-miler Z project
Looks really nice Andrew, but other than the spot in the rear by the bumper I don't see much wrong with the paint. If I were you and there are just a few spots that need paint, white can be blended VERY easily and matched without painting the whole car. Mine is in need of the front being painted because someone neglected to remove the lovebugs (southern bugs) from the front in time and it is etched big time from their guts. I sanded it with 1500 and buffed it but there are still spots. :confused: Guess I'll do it after the wheels.

Re: Update on my hi-miler Z project
Thanks for all the feedback, guys. I'm actually surprised the car turned out as nice as it did, given how cosmetically neglected it was upon arrival.
It was cloudy when the pics were taken... there's lots of chips on the rockers, they look like they were peppered with buckshot. The front bumper cover is all spidered. There's some panel color variation here and there, the driver's door skin was replaced sometime in the 90s, and the rear bumper cover as well, I think in the late 90s (I have the documentation, but can't remember offhand). But, yes, I want to just drive it and enjoy it for a while. Besides, I live on a dirt road now, and there's no way I'd drive it if it was freshly painted. In its current condition, It's easy to laugh off a new chip here and there. |
