I wish I knew someone w/ a bodyshop!! I'd just use the booth!! My garage is definately not a paint booth. Or a body shop. I hate sanding dust all over. Well I sprayed a couple heavy coats of primer this Am . I'll have to block out one more time, but I'm close with the nose.
I had been hoping t o be installing the dash pad. It has come in broken. Npd promised quick replacement. But I havn't heard anything since.
Pice are in the regular 2nd gen thread.
Paint pics..."redneck paint booth."

I think I'm going to try and sweet talk (read beg) the instructor at my college to use theirs for a night or so.

Know I don't. LOL There isn't an autobody course this semester so I'm hoping there will be some available time. One this I do have going for me is my school is very performance oriented. We have a fox body Mustang drag car built by students. It runs on e-85 and brought together welding, renewable energy, automotive, and electronics departments. We also have an electric dragster that recently set a record for ET only because its the only dragster of its type.

I'm not sure what you mean by specific. My major? Just big words hospital maint. guy. They can't outsource heath care can they?
