Wait...the stuff on the side of my car isn't pinstriping...it's...masking tape?!?

Different and yet tasteful. Nice ending to so much preparation. Take it somewhere scenic and get some nice photos. Maybe keep the van touting "Junk Removal" out of the background...

I'm glad the Weather Fairy waved her magic wand for you.

Now for a deep clean of that garage to get all the sanding dust out of there!

Wow-just wow! Looks great Donovan. Now that I've seen your car painted, I understand your paint scheme.

3+ years in the making finally paid off!!

Congratz man. It looks amazing!

Now lets see it all together on the homepage for a special project of the month GBody of the month!!

What's better yet is the fact it was a "saved" G-body (well, ok, technically A-body) that likely all of us without bodywork skills would have parted out had we seen the crud and rust we would have had to deal with.

That's a very good point. I dont think any of us would have saved this car.

With that being said I have a whole new appreciation for real paint and body work. Truth be told we struggled more than Donovan probably wants to admit in the paint booth. Some highs and lows in the process for sure. The moment of truth when we pulled the masking off after color was a pretty huge relief.

Just got caught up on the paint and wow what a beauty! Excellent job Donovan it looks better than i had imagined it would. Have been on pins and needles for weeks now looking forward to seeing it all painted.
