The hood and tailgate don't match the rest of the paint. Gonna spray it all white again and start over. I was wanting it to have a bit more green tint anyway. IMG_1455-vi.jpgIMG_1456-vi.jpg

I've had Mr. Murphy the painter visit me on my latest build.

He's been told to clean out his locker.

 

What has me scratching my head is the vent window frame

on the passenger side....

Gonna see about polishing out the paint later today, actually painted it a week ago.

Colour's actually greener than it looks in this pic. It's HOK candy teal over a custom mixed platinum pearl base.
