Last summer I had to replace the bottom end in my car. While I had the motor out I put springs/retainers in the head and bought an OEM bottom end. Last spring, I had a dream of this paint scheme and decided to paint it. Since my parents own a body shop and Ive been doing body work since I was 12, I figured I might as well paint it while I had the motor out. So heres some pics of the build, enjoy. In a few weeks, when Im home from school, I will post some more pics of the car and a diff rebuild too(4.77 kia gears). I hope I get some honest feed-back on the color choice, Im interested in what S2k guys think about it.

 

Pics of it when it was in the boot the first time

 

im not to sure about the 2 tone, but i wish i knew how to do my own bodywork

 

In the booth again (after cutting all the parts in)

 

Painted and out of the booth

 

The color choice is horrid. Belongs on an El Camino.

BTW, Nice pants.

 

Some Engine pics and the car outside the shop under it's own power

 

FYI, all the colors are S2k colors

 

I like the idea.....it just needs something......

 

Not too sure bout the paint job...
