Hey guys and gals I just got my GN out of the paint shop Friday and man it looks great. A little history about the car: It was orginally from Illinois and the rocker panels and bottoms of the doors had some rust on them. The rocker panels were tore out and new ones welded in. The door rust was taken care of too. The car had been sitting in a barn in Mississippi for 4 years before I found it and rescued it. I have had the car for a little over a year and have gotten all the bugs worked out and had the engine rebuilt and got the car running well. I decided it was time for a paint shop since the old stuff was in bad shape. I put it in the paint shop and 9 1/2 weeks later I got it back. The whole car was stripped to the metal and repainted. I had them add the flames because I wanted something different. The way I saw it I will probably never have the car repainted again so why not give it that special touch. The flames are purple pearl metalic fading into blue. They look very sharp during the day and are barely noticable at night. When the light is on them you can see the color shift between the blue and the purple. The side flames don't show up very well because the reflection is outstanding. I never had that with the old paint and I can't believe how good it looks now. I have already gotten the approval of a few paint/body guys and they said the car was very clean and whoever painted it did a very good job. Here are a couple of pictures. What do you guys think?
