1966 Olds 442

I'm calling this puppy done.  Paint is Tru-Color carbon flash pearl and I used Rustoleum texture paint for the undercoated chassis.

Very nice work on a rather obscure car...I'm not sure I'd go with white plug wires...

[crazyjim]

Thanks Ray. I wanted the wires to stand out somewhat.

I like how it turned out, especially the under coated chassis and the painted frame.

Sweet looking Olds and beautiful paint!!

[Bucky]

Great looking OLDS! I'll hafta remember the undercoating trick!

[Dann Tier]

Another beauty, Jim!!,  what did you use for the carpeting, and what kolor is your carb?

[crazyjim]

Thanks Keith, Ray, Joe, Carl, Keith, and Dann.

Rustoleum texture paint comes in 4 or 5 colors and goes on thick.  Make sure you shoot from at least 12".

Carpeting is Ken's Kustom Funny Fur, Dann, and carb color is a mixture of jet exhaust, flat black, steel, gold, and brass.

Thanks, Jim!....looks terrific!!

I can send you the exact proportions I use for my carb paint if you'd like, Dann.  It's a different amount of drops for each color.

Good looking Olds Jim

[crazyjim]

Thank you Donald and Dan.  Interiors are my favorite part of a build.

Beautiful looking Olds. Since it's a convertible we get to see how nice the interior really is. I like how you detailed the chassis, like a lot of after market sway bars and shocks have been added. Good idea on the undercoating, Rustoleum  also offers a fine textured black paint.
