Scott, The line should be uniform from the leading edge of the front wheel well all the way around to the other leading edge of the other wheel...
Nice to see your Dino out of the shop, off the hoist and in the parking lot! The last time I was at your shop, you were still pounding and...
Congratulations Larry! I'm just curious, is red the original color? If you're ever in Southern California come on by the shop. If you need any...
I have a tool that works great. I will send you a pic this week. It's in my shop somewhere... Steve http://stevekouracos.wordpress.com/
The Dino wheels are done and painted and these Fiat wheel knockoffs will soon be on their way to be chromed. I really like the patina of these old...
Oh, thank you! Sure could have used a cold Belgium beer this past week. Steve http://stevekouracos.wordpress.com/
Buffing in nearly 100 degree heat beat us up this past week but the end results were awesome! Take a look for yourself... Steve...
Great shots Tom! I really like the last shot of the Dino on the red carpet looking out toward the street. Thank you for posting these shots. I'm...

I agree.
Yes! It is the underside of the engine lid. When we received the car it had heavy undercoat sprayed to the inside of all three of the major parts...
Absolutely correct! I am actually trying to minimize primer and paint on those areas so they reveal themselves. So people can see. I think it's a...
Any guess what this photo shows? Hint: It's proof these cars were hand shaped. More photos on my site and the answer along with even more...
As we get ready for the next primer stage we are going through yet another blocking. This makes the car flat, which is a difficult proposition...
It's my passion that drives me to do this work. Thank you for your very kind words.
Slow and on an angle and just remember... it's only paint. If you're ever in the area please stop by and see what we're doing.
