Great to see and read the details on this.
Life is to be viewed thru the windshield. Not rear view mirror.

After 2 seperate stages of poly surfacer and blocking the car is in final prime. All the body joints sealed with 2 part 3m heavy body seam sealer. Then a final wet block sanding and 4 coats of single stage enamel. Bottom of the car sprayed with heavy gravel guard. Painted surfaces wet sanded and buffed. Inside doors and rear trim painted low gloss black.

I will say I didn't care for the hood scoop when I started this project. But now that everything is black and I can get the overall look of the whole car. I changed my thoughts on it. Now my feeling is that it's the perfect look for the car.

Very nice paint. Yes 69 Cuda's just have that plain hood but it has the peak in the middle which is always an issue with a hood scoop it seems.

Believe me @Roadman it looks better in the videos than in real life. But it does look good in the videos.  8)

I like it. Once it's rumbling and rolling it'll be one mean puppy!  8)
