Zippi Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Nice looking Vette so far. My father in-law had a 66 1:1 that was Maroon. Looked pretty sharp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuffy's Garage Posted October 14, 2021 Author Share Posted October 14, 2021 painted and cleared last night dry enough to mock up better pics later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zippi Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Holy Smokes....I would have never thought you could shoot clear over paint that quick. That Maron is a lot lighter than what I was thinking it would be. I like the lighter color. Looks really nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Great looking paint work. I like the wheels, the rear tires look a little tight in the wheel wells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh they are but it looks so cool when mocked up, the front will be a little lower when finished hopefully it will take a little pressure off the back tires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake45 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Honduras Maroon is THE color for '62 Vettes! I did one in the Model Master Honduras Maroon a few years ago, if you'd like a "preview of coming attractions" of what yours will look like when finished.
