That stripe on there just ROCKS!!!!!!!!! Can't remember what you were going to put in the center. Don't tell me cause I want to see it when you put it on.
Thanks RR, I actually had a post on here asking for rump stripe dimension but ended up playing with masking tape until I had what I liked "a little bigger". I won't say what's going in the center but they are working on the graphic right now.

Thanks Ron, I'm not out of the dark yet but it does give me comfort knowing the metal is now buried under 7 layers of base and clear not to mention the primers. I'll likely have to back off for a bit now with Christmas coming but I'm sure I'll find plenty things that require little money to get out of the way.

Don't know what they think....who cares it is your car, any mopar guy is gonna know how much work you put into this. I think it looks freaking awesome. And doing it up tastefully.just my opinion. Usarr
 
Holy $h!t the car is looking awesome!! Really like the tail stripe being a little wider and a great color choice! Looking forward to seeing the graphic in the stripe
:eek:ccasion14:
And what color did you shoot the tail panel, looks like a dark bronze matching the stripe ? Looks outstanding!

Thanks Speedy, it's house of kolors "Galaxy Grey". I went to several car shows trying to figure out what I wanted and found the HOK Tangelo Pearl on all my favorites but really liked the ones with some kind of stripes or something to break it up. Wanting to keep it Mopar I decided to break it up with the rump stripe, tail light panel and the hood (RR lift off hood style) all things that Mopar did "I guess it's a bastard now". Anyways, the charcoal (Galaxy Grey) really went well with the orange so there you have it.

Hoping to get it back together soon and get it outside to see how it really looks. Man were they way off on the amount (paint), I asked a few people wanting to be on the safe side and ended up with twice as much paint and clear as I needed. It took 2 1/2 Qts of base (2:1) and under a gallon of clear (4:1:1), I bought 5 Qts of base (100.00 ea) and 2 Gallons of clear (around 200.00 ea with the hardner) "ouch". Now my spending privedges have been revoked till after Dec haha.

WHEN you get that thing back on the road, I may have to drive up there from NC and buy you breakfast . . . wait . . . 5-6 hour drive, make that lunch or more likely dinner ! ! !

I really would like to see that thing of beauty in person . . .

Some of us around here are talking about a get together at the Nats when we all get our cars done "you in". I go to NC every year but probably not near you "Outer Banks". If your ever in the neighborhood I'd be happy to "maybe some garage time" haha.

I don't know about Oregon, we went there a few times as kids to visit my uncle "long haul". I think he lived in Eugene at the time but moved somewhere else in Oregon "beautiful state". I would love to meat some day "you seam like a pretty likable fun guy" we'll see. Yeah I can't wait to see the bumpers on it too, I'll likely get the hood ready first so they can be painted at the same time "that will mean everything is painted" for now I can't quit looking at it "man am I happy to look at something other than multi colored primer for once".
 
That does look cool!, I like the stripe but myself i would want the bumper the same color as the car..
 
Got to play with it today, fenders back on and the quarter extensions as well "they make it look a little better".DSCN8583.jpgDSCN8585.jpgDSCN8586.jpgDSCN8587.jpgDSCN8588.jpgDSCN8589.jpg Now for some admission, just as I was putting down the last coat of clear my floor dried up (I keep wet to keep dust down) and a little dust kicked up "ON THE LAST COAT". I'll be wet sanding and buffing this weekend, It looks like little fuzzies off of a sweater but luckily doesn't appear to have any color "should buff right out". I have got to get rid of those hideous wheels, man do they spoil the looks.
 
woo hoo hooo hoooo......dammmmmmmmmmm....that looks SEXY!!!!!

hurry up and get everything else on that i gots to see it done.
