Finished! Brutal 'Cuda

OK as promised, here's the doors interior side. SPI single stage black, DeVilbiss plus gun. That gun really gets it out there. I know that some people want to paint everything in the orientation that it is going to be on the car (you can lay it on thick when it's flat, vs. the fenders and quarters can run or sag, but this is jet black, non-metallic and I am going to color sand it, so it should all match and look like glass in the end.

Don't forget the black on the inside of the car below the rear seat door panels! My painter did not realize that needed to be painted, had to go back after. Luckily he had not gotten to the outside of the car yet. He did do the upper trim panels. Here is a picture on a Notchback, Fastback has a similar panel on the bottom, it is part of the car structure.

Here is a link to a few pictures of Jeff Ramin's car of the area below the door panel and the trim panels. If you go to his website the July 2002 thread discusses panel installation order gotcha he ran into on the fastback:
