New paint after 30 years...

[toofastforyou]

During the winter downtime, I'm having my GN completely taken apart, stripped, sanded and refinished. I'm having some GNX fender vents installed, also a fiberglass hood with hood pins, aluminium radiator support, remove the beams inside the doors, etc… Then when it's done, the car goes to Cotton's to reinstall the engine and add some tubular front suspension arms.
Here are a few pictures… (I'll add more as work progresses)

No joke. His car was nice enough before all this work started.

He's just doing this to piss me off!

Are you sure?

Oh hell. I give up anyway. I can't keep up anymore! You win.

I'm now stuck in what may be the endless maintenance mode. But remember, if something big should happen to break, then I will return with a vengeance!!

 

[NY Twin Turbo]

Wow. LOL

As you may be able to tell.........
Claude and I go back quite a few years now.

 

[toofastforyou]

... then I will return with a vengeance!!

Really??…I'll be looking forward to that!

Claude.

P.S: "ray1952", Joey and I have known each other for quite some time...

Yes that was my thinking. Joey has a great looking Buick and it appears you do as well. Good deal, two friends with bad ass cars. Can't ask for more then that. Look forward to seeing more pictures when the time comes

Thanks for the good words… Yeah Joey's car is simply awesome with great attention to details.
As for the work progress on mine, I'll take a few newer pictures sometime this coming week and I'll definitely post them.

I may not be able to get to your body shop........

But I can get to Jack's! He may accidentally misplace some of your parts and won't be able to find them for a long, long, long time.

Jack promised me that I'd have my engine this year…

I'm sure he will. But not if I can hide some of those parts you need while he's not looking.

I just have to be carefull. He carries heavy artillery!

All kidding aside......It is, and always will be, a pleasure to have my ride parked next to yours around the Cotton Camp!
