Thanks Han and Spook,
No narrowed beam for now but I'm waiting for some gasburner wheels which have that cool ET35 offset (vs ET15 for these)..
I used 2k primer (PPG) and the paint is Dupont single stage "Tornado red". The front hood and fenders where wetsanded using 600grit paper to lay the flames out, then top coated with a MS PPG clear.. 5 coats of clear where necessary to burry the flakes, sanding after 3rd coat and then adding 2 last wet coat of clear, with a "flow coat".
Then the hood and front fenders were color sanded going from 1000 to 2000, and buffed using the whool pad first then the foam pad.
Here are some pics of the interior:
Engine (120hp 2 liter typ1, home made):
Doing a convertible decklid at the mo', the one I have is in "good" shape but I painted it quickly knowing I would replace it soon..
And the flame job (it was my 1st one BTW
), the flame design is not very good but..:
Still LOTS of things to do on this bug..
Cheers,
Leo
