THE GENTLEMAN THAT PAINTEDTHIS CAR 26 YEARS AGO CALLED ME LAST WEEK. HE WAS SUPER SUPRISEDTO SEE THE CAR AND COULDN'T BELIEVE THE CONDITION. HE SHED A LOT OF LIGHT ON THE BUILD & QUESTIONS I'VE ALWAYS WONDERED. HE WAS 33 YEARS OLD WHEN HE & HIS FATHER IN LAW DID THE BODY WORK & HE PAINTED IT. HE IS 61 TODAY & STILL DOING BEAUTIFUL WORK. GREAT GREAT GUY!!ALL ORIGINAL GM METAL. HE MADE THE FRONT BUMPER, REAR BUMPER IS CHROME BENEATH. SAID HE USES A STRAIGHT EDGE LIKE A CARPENTER DOES WHEN DOING HIS WORK. I BELIEVE IT. HE SAID IT WAS SANDED & BLOCKED WITH 600-2000 GRIT, PAINTED, SANDED SO NO LINES BETWEEN THE ORANGE & BLUE ON THE FRONT & WET SANDED & CUT & BUFFED WITH 600-2000 AGAIN. I TOLD HIM ALL BS ASIDE EVEN TODAY THE CAR IS SLICK. RUN YOUR HAND DOWN THE SIDE & IS LIKE IT WAS PAINTED YESTERDAY. JIMMY LYONS IS HIS NAME. HE SAID THERE MAYBE A 1/8TH TO 1/16TH INCH OF PUTTY ON THE ENTIRE CAR!!!!!!!!!
HERE IS UNBELIEVABLE BUILD THAT TOOK 6 YEARS TO COMPLETE. THE BODY & PAINT WORK ARE SOME OF THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN. EVERY PIECE OF GLASS, WEATHER STRIPPING, WINDOW SEALS, CARPET, LATCH, HINGE, NUT, BOLT, SWITCH, TRIM, ETC WAS CHANGED!!! LITERALLY.
THE DOORS ON THIS CAR OPEN SO EFFORTLESSLY & CLOSE THE SAME WAY. IT'S IS THE FIRST THING I ASK SOMEONE TO DO WHEN THEY WALK UP & BEGIN TO ASK ME ABOUT THE CAR. I'VE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER CAR OR TRUCK THAT IT WAS THAT SMOOTH. ITS SIMPLY AMAZING.
THE CAR WAS FEATURED IN SUPER CHEVY MAGAZINE & WAS A 3 PAGE SPREAD. I STILL HAVE THE ISSUE IT WAS IN. IT WILL GO TO THE NEW OWNER.
