Default 86 Monte Carlo SS, Year One?

Just a quick update. Been absoutly covered up at the shop and hardly anytime to work on our own toys. But with Year One just 11 days away, we thought we should get some color on the Monte.

So it's Sunday night, Monday morning at 2:30AM, and its still wet in the pics. Michael did a bang up job on "the driver" shooting it in all 3 stage colors. White pearl, Magnetic red, and peral black Mica.

Thanks to Carter Hickman for the great design. I think seeing it painted is just enough to get us over the hump. All it needs now is the motor / trans installed, the complete interior installed, all the stereo stuff installed. But we have 11 days and the 67 Vette to paint Weds and to get ready for the show too. Sounds like were right one schedule!

Michael says hes driving it to Year One, so lets see

More pics to follow when we get it in the sun and let it light up all that pearl

Damn Frank, that thing is looking good! It has come a long ways since we talked about it on the phone! Can wait to see totally finished pics. You weren't lying when you said Michael did a "bang up job" on the paint.

If you feel like sharing, what BS up front?
I love this car, if I had more time and money I would have done something like this to my Regal.
