Default started on the paint project today.....pic inside!

ended up jumping into the project that ive been dragging a$$ on because of this texas heat but threw on some trunks and stayed cool hosing myself down all day lol this is what ive got done so far. sanded and fixed all 15 dings in my hood and fenders. going to wake up early in the morning and finish it up so i can go ahead and prime it all before i lay my color, still have to put on the new rear bumper as well.

I havent done any sanding on a car, except for wet sanding and such. It appears to be looking good right now. I am sure the finished product will look good. Keep us posted.
