The thought of blacking out that rad support makes me sick, (frsh new white paint) but at the same time, u can really see it through the grill.

You can still do it tactfully and the result will be great, especially when you look at the front of the car.......

Great looking 69 man!!! Seeing how far its gone since April is really making me want to finish my 69. If you dont mind me asking, how much did it cost to do body and paint?

That is truly a beautiful car. With the hood off it kind of looks like one of those "Hotwheels" cars from the 60's!   :cheers:

One of the first things I look for is the blacked out core support when I see a restored car among other things that should be black & are not. I'm funny that way I guess. 10 years ago probably 9 out of 10 did not have the radiator support blacked out. Nows it's probably 4 out of 10 & with the 6 out of 10 done probably 5 out of the 6 done wrong. :Twocents: :shruggy: :scratchchin: LEON.

:iagree:   I did mine the "neat" way....taped everything off and just rattle canned some satin black in there.

Either way you choose you did an awesome job :cheers:

Thanks guys, I did 90% of the work myself with a lot of guidance from my father in law. It was sent out to someone else for paint and to put the windshield back in but thats it. Just can't wait to take my son for a drive- hes 18 months and a car nut already.

Good call on farming that stuff out.

The car looks fantastic. Great job!

Why don't you drive by my place next week? Ontario isn't that far. :D

Looks like very nice detail, Shawn. I, too like white cars. I think that color makes most cars look larger! Rick
