My instincts would lead me to believe that your not telling the truth. I mean it looks to good to be true. If you really did do that yourself, in your driveway, with some paint from a hardware store, pat yourself on the back.
I have been called a liar on numerous forums for this post.
I assure you that this was all me, by hand. Did you not look at the write up?
I have pictures taken through the entire process.

I'll back up Styluss on this one. He did it. Thats for sure. I've looked at his pictures both on the writeup and on Motortopia. Its probably a good thing to do to an older car that really needs painting or else for someone to paint a car that they really can't justify dropping a $1000 or more on. Its very possible to do. My grandfather painted his farm truck in a similar way. Looks ok from a distance and in pictures, but up close it doesn't look like a base/clear job.

If you take a closer look at the post, I never called you a liar! I was carefull on how I worded it. And it does look to good to be true, but like I said before, if you really did do it, good job.
