The Camaro

I finally did manage to get a little bit done on that poor neglected ol' camaro tonight. Not a lot though. I went over the two tone on the seats by hand with a brush since the spray paint was not behaving.

I have come to the conclusion that that yellow spray paint has been the problem all along. I had not moved the hood since the last coat I gave it and it had some bubbling in it too.

Now I don't mind painting at all, but doing the same car over, and over is getting old....
I'll try sanding out the bubbles and re-spraying the hood one more time.

I started some of the detail on the dash while I was at it, and the console too. I will try and get them far enough along to get some pics up today sometime (since it is after midnight here.)

I was going to shoot the black stripe, but the hood is going to stop that progress in it's tracks for now. I can always work on the chassis and motor now I guess while the hood is getting ready for new paint.

There is also the rear end and tire clearance to work out as well. I need to drop the rear of the car a bit to get the stance right. There is also the headers to be built from solder still.

I want to finish the camaro and the 54 Chevy before I try getting to involved with another project.
