Hey guys thought I would post pics of the start to the finish of my first body project with my dad. We did all the work and got all parts from a local junkyard relatively cheap. My neighbor recently opened up his Maaco and painted the car as a practice car. It is not perfect but if I wanted a perfect custom job I'd go to a custom shop. But if you're in the Mid-Atlantic (MD) region and want a touch up he’s got an opening special for $199 for a fresh coat of paint.

All the pictures wouldn't fit so see below for halfway through and finished product. I wanted to go with supersonic blue pearl but somehow away at school the paint code must have gotten mixed up but it turned out ok.

wow big propbs. It came from looking total to untouched. Looks good and +1 for saving it.

 

Color actually looks pretty sick!

Great work! Good enough for a daily, thats for sure!

I see some flaws, but they're minor, and for a first project it turned out great

 

+5 for saving it..still has some flaws but thats ok

 

Thanks, guys. It's not perfect but a strong daily driver. The Maaco is located in Jessup, MD which is outside of Baltimore and the number is 443-755-0690 ask for Henry....$199 for a fresh coat if you're looking for a custom job go to a custom shop =]
