slyhog22056 Posted October 15, 2010 Share #1 Posted October 15, 2010 Spent the last 7 months preparing my 500Z for paint and finally got it done. Through a big set back painted it Bronze metallic. painted it candy apple red with gold pearl but i didnt like the way the pearl looked i sanded it down and picked this bronze color.

Yes the 500Z is a 5,0 ford motor. Will be buffing it all out after i make all the interior panels and do the interior. i have the plastic panels for the rear section but having to make all the leather pieces, plastic front pieces and make a fiberglass dash and console.

auzziez Posted October 15, 2010 Share #5 Posted October 15, 2010 That Gold Flake look on the hood is Great! Is that paint or gold foil? Awesome job. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Can't wait to see the finished product.Well it isnt flake at all it is black acrylic enamel with gold marbleizing, just paint your black, let it dry, spray bomb gold over that spray lightly with mineral spirits and take some plastic and dab it here and the to get the look you want, try it with spray bombs sometime, just be sure the black is completely dry or the gold and miineral spirits will make the black wrinkle up, which isnt a bad look either....i love the look.
