33 Coupe Paint 21        10/03/05

You can see my hood side here which are ready to be painted. It's hard to picture here but if this hood side was installed on the car, the flames would match the ones on the door. When the sides are off, the flames continue into the firewall/cowl area. It's the best of both worlds having the graphics like this. 

Try to put this picture on the car (below) to get a better idea of what I'm doing and follow the graphics towards the end of the panel. Notice how the flames on the left end of the hood side flows into the side of the car. Can you see it?
 

 

 

Here is the firewall all cut out and ready for paint. Rob had just enough room to work without me removing anything that might end up being in the way. There will be a couple of things that I will be installing on the firewall later on but nothing big enough to take away from the graphics. Rob and I talked about what would be installed on the firewall before he did anything so that gave him an idea of what he could do and couldn't do. 
 

 

 

Rob masks the car completely so no paint gets on anything that it shouldn't. I like the way he works because he's very efficient and careful about how he goes about his work. So far, he's done a great job and I can't wait to see what it looks like when he's finished. 
 

 

 

Here is Rob's tool box which isn't very big and has most of the stuff that he used on my car in it. Back at his shop, he has many more tools and supplies but for my project, this is what he brought. Let's take a look at a spray booth action shot.
