That sucker has paint on it !!
As most of you have noticed I have not posted much
in the last few days. I have spent the last 10 days preping my GT40 for paint. Well she's painted !:3DSMILE: I tried really hard to make it as nice as I possibly can. I owe a lot of gratitude to my friend Ivan for all of his help and advise. He has let me use his paint booth and a large part of his shop to do the work. Tomorrow I start the polishing routine. God I hate to sand it just to polish it cause it looks soooo good just the way it is now. I know that it will be much better after it's buffed. I'm trying real hard to have the engine in and the rest of it back together by next week. I try and work on the dash wiring a little when I come home. It's just about done. As soon as I get it home I will post a few photos. Hersh:) PS.... Chad Johnson, Thanks for the titanium color numbers. It is spot on and I love it. :3DSMILE: I hope that I can get a photo of your Cobra next to my GT40 at the Fling. |
Congrats Hersh...
Ginny and I will be over soon to take a look at it. Mike |
Wow, that's great Hershal! I know you guys haven't seen me around for a while, but I always read up on what you guys are doing via the forum.
Anyway, congratulations on the next stage. I can't wait to hear that engine roar! Ben |
Hersh,
Where's the pics? :cool: |
Way to go Hershal-- that definitely is a milestone--
Best regards, Jim |
Hersch,
I for one am really getting excited, waiting to see it! And I thought you wouldn't be able to get it done! Shame on me! DV - We need your support and attendance! Have you bought your raffle ticket? Oh my...300 Cobras just aren't enough! Are you registered? |
GREAT JOB HERSHAL!!!
|
I stopped by Hershal's today....
The car is really taking shape. The body is beautiful. Hersh should have the front clip on by midnight. He has been working dawn to oil lamp time. He really is driven to finish before June 1st. All electrical is run. Brake system, fuel system and cooling system done. Motor should be in middle of next week. He is waiting for the tranny and windshield. He says he will try to post pics as soon as he can. Mike |
Great Job Hershal!!!!! If you need any help on Monday or Tuesday I bet I can get a way for a while. Can't wait to see it.
See ya, Kevin |
He must be working his tail off. Great!

Hersh
Man--you're smooooooooookin! |
Jamo,
I'm smokin" alright and it ain't the good stuff ! Guys, I'm sorry for not posting some pictures. I will try tomorrow after the front clip is attached. I got the doors on today and the handles. I also painted the underside of the clips and did some wiring today. Everything should be on the car by tomorrow night except the rear clip. I will put in the engine and trans before that goes on. She's looking more beautifull everyday.:3DSMILE: Hersh:) |
Hersh
Well, there's your problem! That mixture of road runner tail feathers, fermented cactus pears and sage brush just can't be good for you!:3DSMILE: |
