    Nice job Jose, I really like the distinct peak you added to the rear fenders, I know how hard that is to keep the peak straight. Is the Buick some of your work?
    Keep us posted on your progress.

    Thank you i raised and widened the quarter panels, 3 inches taller and 3 inches wider with a rib on the top to make body work a lil bit easy on me . Also peaked the hood and pushed it foward 3-6 inches to match the corvette grill. Rounded of the mouth and also pushed it out 3 inches definitely alot of work that i wish i could of posted here a long time ago . But now ill be able to keep updates on the regular depending on what im working on. The buick came in to fix primer cracks that bled threw the paint and clear i assume, too much build up. So i will be having to respray the entire car. [​IMG] the color ill hopefully shoot here in a couple weeks

    You mentioned "table mix" a couple times, I usually save that for after work but seeing your results maybe I will start a little earlier.....................................
