Resurrecting a 144k FD by Fd3BOOST

Starting shooting some of the parts in clear this morning. I have work obligations so I can't fool with it any more this morning but i plan to spray some more clear tomorrow.

Bumper came out good. I had a few runs on the fender that ill have to sand out. Nothing I can't fix.

This paint looks great if i do say so myself. Iridescence in sunlight...

I'm working with the wrong reducer for the temps so I'm getting some runs. I've just ordered the correct reducer to get it to flash faster. I can get the runs out no problem. Just makes more work. The work around the vent looks good otherwise. No shrink in around the molded vent seam.

Ill be in a holding pattern at this point waiting on RU310 reducer to arrive via brown Santa.

Still have the doors, hatch and the unibody to clear and then it's onto sanding and buffing.

I'm not ready to reassemble. I'm getting slightly closer though. All of the paint work is done. I started to wet sand out the clear coat earlier today before the football game came on. I hope to be able to start buffing next weekend. I also went ahead and placed my order on the new pillow ball set and a complete set of Super Pro suspension bushings. I will be working on that directly after the paint is buffed out. I'd like to get the car back on wheels so I can move it around. The interior will probably get stripped out right after the suspension gets re-assembled. 

Anyway here is some photos that I wanted to post, Enjoy. I have a 27" iMac, sorry of these are to large for your puny little screens...

A couple more..

Sup little buddy!
