looking good

thanks...now just gotta get gping on the rest of the kit.....gotta see if i can wedge a bigblock in there instead of the 302.....gonna leave the rallies on it

Ummmm, did u use primer?

ya i used primer...why do you ask???

He asked because it looks like you can see white through the paint on the hood. But I'm guessing that's what that paint does when you use the flash on your camera.

ya trhe flash drowns out the paint....if you look at the first pic of the car...i covered half the flash up...thats how the paint iis supposed to look...plus i didnt have the cam on macro

Nice work Dean, thats a kool colour.. :cool:

No worries with the Big Block, she'll drop straight in, or should do..
Are you adding any stripes, like Z28 or similar...?

Keep the progress going Mate
cheers stump :aus:

YA its gonna get the z28 stripes...probably go withthe black ones....so they arent as noticeable...more subtle than in your face as the white ones would be on the dark blue. cool a big block looks cooler in these engine bays anyhow.

Nice color and paint!
