It's All Blue. Woo Hoo!

This is a pretty exciting time now! With mere drops of paint left, Mike finished spraying the panels the other day. A Nason sealer, then 3 coats of Dupont Chromabase color, then 2 drop coats, then 3 coats of clear. (Still needs to be wetsanded and buffed.) Sorry for the lousy pix; I decided I need a new camera...

Let There Be (More) Blue!

I can definitely see the light at the end of the tunnel. Here's the body in Bright Island Blue and tons of clear. Some sanding and polishing is in order soon. The rest of the body panels and various pieces will be painted at the end of next week, and I am planning to take a week off from work after Memorial Day to try putting the car back together... We'll see! (Alan took some of these photos in the paint booth. I took the others in a dark room with a flash, so the blue is darker than what it is in sunlight...)

Getting ready:

Couple days later:

Lights, Camera, Action!

Here are some Mustang-related TV commercials I found on YouTube from back in the day. Ah, the good ol' days.
