The first visit I made this is what was done....

 

The second visit, all the major prep work is done....







































My poor poor interior







Last pic for now

 

Oh man. Those rims & interior are going to be a bitch to clean up afterwards.

Trenell couldn't you borrow steelies from someone just to bring it to the bodyshop or what?

 

What colour?

 

what kind of yellow/beige paint is that?

 

thats sweet, but i cant believe it, lol i went for body shop quotes today. We just keep doing the sameee thing. haha

 

hey trenell take off the side skirts and check under it for rust.

 

that's what these pics are :P

 

^^he's probably referring to the other end, inside the side sill...

 

damn it's gonna look sweet

 

are you getting all the rust fixed? I really hate how body shops get dust all over your interior

 

^ dust is a biatch!!

i dont know T, but from the looks of the pics, the rust in the rear fender looks like it may pop back up in maybe a year or so!!!

 

Where is this getting done?

 

Hey how come they dont remove taillights, mirrors and 1/4 windowmoldg.?
From what i see there is a lots of Bondo.

 

hey T, shave the antenna, and the rear squirter one time, trust me, i wish i rememberd to do that ----. and clean your interior! (first time i can say that to jOO! :P)

 

Tony: Respray plus body work.

Marty: Rims is gonna be easy to clean. That's only about a weeks worth of dirt. For most people a months worth. Interior won't be too bad, it just sucks that it was mint before it went in.

Jeff: Same frost white

Simo: it's not paint or primer

Reza: The other side has no rust, I know it's still on in the pics, but I've checked personally myself before hand.

Wayne: There is no fixing rust, but I know what you mean. So far the sideskirt part was grinded then cut and welded. I'm not sure what they're gonna do about the inner lip on the quarter though. In all honestly, I could care less.

Jay: Only time will tell, but from my experience rust always returns. If not in the same place, somewhere else.

Stealth1: Velocity Autobody

Mane: They're painting seperate doors and mirrors. You didn't think I'd have the rear mouldings shaved and not the doors? They will remove the taillights, when they paint. It's only masked to avoid scuffing the lense cover during prep work. I'll ask them if they'll remove the 1/4 moulding, but from my research they can't re-use it and if that's the case, I'd rather them just do the stick a straw or something underneath to lift it up instead. So Mane your telling me bodyshops don't use "bondo" and if you think the yellowish stuff is bondo it isn't.

Fuzzy: NO....hahaha

 

Guys he's lying about the paint colour...he's actually painting it TEAL like Fuzzy's...they want to be twins...lol

but seriously...I miss that car now too...

 

It's forest green!

 

Dude, your gonna be like a kid on xmas morning when its done!

Too bad you couldnt source out the OEM sides and the 97 ITR lip in time. Unless you did?

Fresh paint, fresh motor, what else can you ask for! Cant wait to see it when I get back.

 

when i had my car painted they cut out all the rust and welded in new sheet metal, even along the bottom of the driver's side door. i rolled my fenders before it went for paint too, really glad i did that!

 

Who said you can't have 2 looks to the car?

 

haha...i know i know the secret to that lol.

 

he wishes :wtf: :*****:

 

^^lmao...Fuzzy stop being so emo...just because Trenell loves to wear Pinstripe suits and Square front shoes doesn't mean he isn't cool enough to have the same colour as you... :laugh1: :*****:

 

hey man i like those rims(got the same ones) good luck with the body work......

 

looks good brother your lucky that you can take pics while its beeing done i couldn't, but it looks like its gonna be GRRRRRRREAT!!!!!

 

Hey Trenell did u always have your emblems shaved ? if not do u have the rear one? umm i need 1. name a price if u can hook me up

 

I'll bring them to the meet on Wednesday. You can have them for free.

 

for real? oh wow im gonna go to a meet should be interesting. Are weds meets still at kennedy commons?

 

nope..
sherway gardens area.

 

 

Cant wait to see the fresh paint on sunday! Your interior is gonna need lots of TLC after everything is done. I hate cleaning up after getting the car back from the bodyshop.

 

I dunno... I love cleaning my car after getting it back from the shop. It's kind of like the last step before the "new" car.

Plus, I hate when body shops clean cars anyways... they use the same dirty *** rag for everything! Them wiping and vacuuming just makes it worse, you have to do it again when you get home anyways.

Can't wait to see it at next meet's week Tren!

 

sweet T

can't wait to see it..

 

lookin' good T hopefully i'll have mine back for sunday too. photoshoot!!!!!

 

^^^ yours is in the bodyshop too...sweet, post some pics

For the picky ones, the taillights are coming out and the driverside sideskirt is coming off as well before paint.

Then anyone that wants to check out the quarter panels can do so at the meets...cough cough Jeff
