Awesome! How long does a paintjob like that take?? Think the wheels are from the California Wheels 57 Chev, if memory serves? (which it usually doesn't!)

Chris, YES! That's it. I just realized that I have the kit here without the wheels so I must have robbed my own kit for those wheels. There you go.

A paint job like this takes me about three days. One for prepping and priming, one for paint and graphics, and one for clear coating. The sanding and buffing happens a few days later when I will usually do several bodies at a time.

Thanks.

Ahhhh, channelling the spirit of Hollywood Jim!

That's an interesting ride. Seems way too perky for ole Harry, but okay, we can go with it.

Nice build, V!
