Default 99 Repaint

This is my first repaint and I still need to apply decals and the clear coats. But, I think it'll look nice when done. I have to find a donor motor but I think I'll enjoy using this one. Here are a few of the before and the current state.

Candace,

That is going to be different. I'm looking forward to the pics as you get more done.

​Who wouldn't enjoy sewing on a red hot machine? Are you going to put the regular decals on it or the flames they put on hot rod cars?

The paint was completely removed, the machine sanded and two coats of primer.

No, it's getting white daisies put all over it:> It's going to have to wait a bit until my decals arrive.

Love it! Can't wait to see it all done. I'm planning a project like this also.
