72 DEMON 340 4SPD

[WAYNE0]

Finally got the demon im working on painted. Its taking longer than i thought it would. Even though the only rust work it had was the rockers. The owner had it sand blasted & i think (not sure) the panels were warped. The only panels that wasnt blasted were the hood & trunk lid. They were nice & straight except for one small dent in each one. The fenders, doors & quarters were wavy. 4 coats of base & 4 coats of clear Now on to sanding & buffing. I really dont like the sanding part. lol

Looks like you have a bit of experience laying that paint down flat. Looks excellent.

Nice..! Is it B2 light blue metallic?

My '71 Demon is B2 (redone in matte finish by a previous owner).
B2 seems to be scarcer than B5.

Nizzzzze! Most guys post pics of their project car laying in the weeds somewhere but you started your story just out of the paint booth. Looks dynomite!
