Go ahead guess. Answer after gap.
Off to paint for hopefully the last time. Stopped by after my battle of the bands auditions and they had already finished blocking and priming the front and back of the hood and trunk. Note: That's my Blazer's spare tire. I took that snowflake off because it's the only one that hasn't been restored yet and this 3 week painting period gives me time to restore it for the show on the 10th.
Hopefully the car will be done by then. If I get it back on Thursday night the 8th, I'll be able to work on it all Friday night and hopefully it prepared for my high school's car club's annual car show (you guys should go). This one night to put it together means it probably won't have an exhaust or decals on it by the time the show starts. Oh well! I'm an officer in the club so it would be shameful to not have a car entered.
She's being painted with prospray brand paints... what that means I have no clue so yeah.

Oh, I dunno, that mix of primer and cheap blue respray give the car a certain je ne sais quois.
Looking forward to seeing her in her true glory. Still planning on going black/gold screaming chicken and snowflakes?

Congrats!
Though my initial guess was that you had a friend drive you around while the car was on the trailer so you can pretend to drive it for a little bit.
This is much better.

I saw a beautiful Firebird on a truck and it reminded me of your posts. I have been following your progress with this car and your dedication to it is amazing. Your patience will pay off and you'll have a car that many will be envious of! In fact, I am envious already. Forza Bandit, you'll get her done soon!

Quadrajet carb. I'm too poor to have an efi system.

We can all dream. I dream of a car instead of a motorcycle whose engine came out of the dump and was built in my garage and loves to throw chains (review to come).
