The sun finally came out today so I could get a nice picture of the finished paint.

The power came back on, and now she's taped up and in the booth getting painted!

A few hours in and the power goes out. The city is redoing the power poles outside to make way for widening the road. We were able to finish what wasn't sanded by hand. Now we must wait until they are finished to blow it off, tape her up, and finally paint!

Today is the day for paint. We begin by sanding down the car one last time.

Last night we had dinner with a good friend who gave Michael an oouga horn :-)

This evening there was a little more bodywork to do, then we taped her up and sprayed primer where we sanded down.

After riding around in  the primer job for about a week, it's time to start fine tuning some of the body work.

Wheels!

So today Michael and Brandon decided to paint the wheels. Here's how it went:

Before:

First we sanded and taped them up.

Then we wrapped them in paper and wiped them down.

Then came the paint!

And then the installation.
