6.1 Hemi 69 Barracuda Fastback Father Son Project
Hard to tell but there are 3 different blacks... Suede Black Dash Frame, Sem Ultra Trim Satin Black on the bezel where it was originally chrome, and Krylon Fusion, textured satin black on the face where it used to be silver. 3 slightly different shades of black, different textures and different sheens... Poor lighting today, heavy clouds and raining so pretty dark on my patio. Phone flash didn't help much.
Still need to add the silver stripe above the cluster to tie the left and right sides together...
Some silver on the raised circles around the Flasher, Lights and Wiper switch holes too. I have a silver paint pen that might be good for those, and the Trip reset hole depending what function/switch I end up putting there...
Masking off that little fish was a challenge but it worked out. The Script is easily removed and replaced after painting. Was surprised to see copper under the chrome when sanding to rough up the chrome before primer.
I would expect it for a triple chromed bumper but chromed plastic??? I had no idea... "¯\_(ツ)_/¯"
Not car related but we have a new puppy...
Our new Puppy has been and will be taking up a lot of my time for a while. Just turned 8 weeks, so lots of house training and puppy rules to be taught. Today is only day 4 in her new forever home.
Her name is Riley.
Riley is a Black Tri-color purebred Australian Shepherd.
She will be my primary focus for a while...
Will squeeze in some work on the car when I can.
