Posted: Mon Aug 11, 2008 12:15 am Post subject: New paint with car just washed **pictures**
So for the past 4 or 5 months i've been working on doing body work and getting the car painted, and finally the painting is done. It isn't perfect but its not a show car its a daily driver. In the pictures only the hood is waxed so the rest of the car might not be as shinny as the hood. I'll put the link to the full album of pictures from today up, but i am trying to post a teaser pic for everyone to see, but i don't know if it will work. Would love to hear what you think about the car.
Lookin' GREAT Parker!
I guess you don't need the bumper anymore. _________________ 84 Elky with 455 Buick, Tremec TKO600 5 speed, 8.5 3:42 posi -

Another 3 to 9 years should finish it.
Thank you for all of your compliment they are much appreciated.
464elky: I'm sorry i forgot to get back to you about the bumper i was on vacation when you sent the PM and i forgot about it. I'm pretty broke right now so i am just doing what i can to get the car finished so it can be driven everyday without any problems.

The car looks great... i want to get a cowl hood for mine but just outta my budget... i have big plans to paint mine within the next month or so and im looking towards a purple and fuscia something similar to this...
well pretty much exactly like that but with some skulls fading into the paint _________________ I bet my engine sounds better than yours....
358L-CO: I am not one for purple but purple with some ghost flames would look very nice.
mgs72elky: Thanks... Yeah the colors came out really nice after i edited the picture. Really made the shirt stand out. _________________ 1979 el camino 355ci sbc, t56 viper trans, grand national 8.5 rear
Nice pictures buddy. Did youi paint it yourself? Either way its a balsy move to go with black and if that's you reflected in the paint it's nice to see some younger guys getting into Elky's.
My dad a buddy of ours and myself painted the car, and yes that is me in the reflection. _________________ 1979 el camino 355ci sbc, t56 viper trans, grand national 8.5 rear
