Starting re-paint Grabber

Great thread. Nice to have a dealership at your finger tips aint it. I have a good employer as well. No issues with our own vehicles in shop. You just have to respect it as a business and be sensible. Hell my car spent 11 months in our dealership for body and paint working after hours etc. Cant wait to see your car as it moves along.

 

Mount front bumper and filler panel now

You need to check the fit of the front bumper and bumper filler panel now before paint.

The front fenders you have dont have the notch in them to clear those parts ! You will have to modify the fenders or the gravel pan.

Save you some headaches before you find this out after paint.

 

Finishing all moulding polishing, powder Coated rear tail Lamps black,cleaning all brackets and painting. Talked to Nick Dominick on the phone (good guy) about paint colors.
I was having trouble on picking final Color choice. Made my mind up,
It should have paint on it in the next few days. Can't wait ! it is block sanded now and ready for Paint. Really looking forward to getting it done in time for later July-Sept Car Shows.
Car will have all the Grabber Decals Hood, Side,
Rear. the Color is.............
I will Post Pic's when it shot. Thanks Nick.

I really hope its a color i havent seen on a maverick before.

 

It is I think..? I have not seen one painted it yet, on the board.

 

Looking forward to the painted update.

 

^^^I hope you read this if you were still planning on switching to the 70-72 front bumper...

Can't wait to see the colour!

Cant wait to assemble my car! some pics. more to follow..Kirk

 

I love that color, it's going to look awesome!

 

I don't think you can ever be too picky. It's looking great so far. I love the pile of parts ready to install. I have the same pile just need some time.

 

That's gonna look cool.

 

You will find that yellow turns some heads, compared to the brown. It will look like a totally different car.

 

Paint is Done! car is home......

Car is finished being painted. It was just dropped o ff Friday, and now starting to reassemble it. My goal is together in 30days.

Here are a few shots ,I will add more later busy in Garage :bananaman
