'72 Demon Project
I started with the front fender. The car used to be ugly green from factory and the first owner who had the car until he died painted it yellow. The paint shop I was talking to told me it would be best to start over from bare metal, so I started sanding, realizing it would take forever to get the paint off.
So I did some research and decided to try chemicals.
I finished the fender but came to the conclusion that working with acid is too much of a mess. In the meantime I also decided I will wrap the car myself, so getting it clean and smooth with body filler instead of going all the way to the metal is fine.
I am currently waiting for the samples from 3M but I am leaning towards matte gray with black stripes and orange lines and orange interior details or orange wrap with black details again. Lets see. But I wouldnt hate going into a more aggressive color as this:
The fender is pretty much done, next panels are drivers door, hood and front lip. The right door have one of 3 bigger rust issues so I will see what I do there as you can see on the very first pic.
