half a gallion of rustolium red from lowes, hand full of roller, 2 coats,..idk 35 40 bucks all in...was real pleased with it for what it was,...im sure 3 or 4 coats and wet sanding and buffing would give a lot better results but on this car if the finished paint looked any better the ruff body woulda stood out worse!

LOL. I LOVE the red paint job on dirty white boy's car. I always wondered what a roller job would look like. Not too bad at all.
 
You can get incredible results with a roller. Use that type of paint they use on fire escapes. You can shoot it and almost not damage it.
 
painted mine back in summer of '12 ant been washed or nothing since bet a good scrubbing itll shine back up like in them pics sept where bondo fell out...
 
You should see the Moparts orange Charger rustoleum thread, it's a bi#ch, but it's for real....

My buddy and I painted the roof of his 56 Pontiac back in the late 60's with white enamel paint and a good paint brush. We laid the paint on thick and it all ran together with no brush lines. Back then all supplies probably cost less that 10 bucks. Looked amazing.
