    Dino, I promise my last question/request! Would you mind taking a snapshot of the front door jamb (yellow arrow)? I want to see how the black paint transitions to the red paint. My '80 is painted wrong (all red) and I cannot find an internet photo of that "never" photographed inside corner of the car. You can usually see the other side of the door jamb (green arrow) when a door is photographed open and how the black/red transition is done in the jamb, window louver recess, and up over the body. You did give some great shots in the paint booth with the car masked off for the black paint spray. I am curious to see a close-up of that front door jamb area finished and painted correctly!

    Hey Derek,
    My car was the same, it was painted and the pillars were painted red. I dont know if i did it correctly or not? but I did the cut off line in between the dash bolts. This will be covered up by the finish plate that covers the hinges.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers!

    Excellent! - I have always wanted to see an image of that never photographed corner. Looks very appropriate. Maybe someone else can confirm what the factory did with this body color transition. thank you again!

    Dino- Looks gorgeous, nicely (and quickly) done. I like the custom filler above the exhaust, deep front, euro bumpers and stance. Are you going to add the black in the mid-body split or leave it red? v/r Paul

    Paul, Thank you. I really like the filler as well, the previous owner had it made and fits amazing. The stance works but might be a bit to low luckliy the suspesion is adjustable. we will be adding the black stripe just polishing the car first.
    I have not driven the car yet, but hopefully this weekend i'll get it out.

    Fantastic!

    Amazing that this car was just a box of parts in February.

    The body looks beautiful. The engine design sounds awesome.

    There is nothing in this world like the sound of a flat-plane crank V8!
