Cool 521!!! I always wanted one but don't know if I could live with the kingpin suspension. Did you get that truck in West VA? Looks like one I was eyeing for a bit.

Edit: Not the same truck although similar.

My wood shop.

3 coats of Mellow Yellow and 2 coats of clear. I'm exhausted now

Great practice for your first Z!!

I agree Guy, but he should probably keep working to improve before restoring his own Z. Brandon is more than welcome to hone his painting skills on my Z.

wow, that is awesome.. did you cover the floor? Did you use ventilation?

that is just amazing!

Nice paint job.

Thanks everyone This is my best paint job yet. It's amazing!! Would have easily cost $5k. I misted the floor with water before I shot everything and hung some plastic drop cloth. I also used a Torpedo heater in b/t coats to keep the garage warm. Make sure anyone who tries this at home never uses any type of open flame heat source while paint vapors are still in the room!

Here are some better photos now that everything has cleared out.

The color is hard to capture in photos. It needs to be in the sunlight.

He makes the "Old Man" proud!!

The next time I'm your way, I WILL stop and see your amazing collection in person.

Careful, I might not leave!
