New Paint Job for 2010

Post by Guest Sun Jan 10, 2010 3:58 pm

got my van back from Maaco, and put it together enough to take a couple of photos. Paint job looks really good, some of my bodywork isn't as good as I hoped, and I'm not sure I got the heavy primer and flat sanding that I paid for, but am happy with the color, the shine and the price.

Not sure if the photos are attached here, but will put them in my gallery

Thanks G-Man! I thought I was picking a similar silver to the previous color, but this has a bit more pewter in it, actually matches the mustang wheels very well, they didn't know it because I had different wheels on it when I took it to the shop.

They are late model mustang bullet wheels, 17". Not sure what the tire size is, but because of the offset I had 1" spacers made for the front and 2" for the rear. I will sooner or later go with a bit taller tire for the rear, and want to lower the front a tad.

Thanks
Rob
