1969 Talladega rebuild.

I don't feel like building from the ground up right now so I figure I will fix this one up.




One shot icy blue right over the original black paint... Gave the blue such a nice color. I did light coats till I got the shade I wanted... About 3 I think it was. So the black is still a shade visible when turned right. Which is just what I was going for...

Here's how it used to look...

Not bad but so boring...

More in a while... O and if I can find the dash board that will get installed this time around lol

Also clear is all ready done. 2 mist 3 wet of duplicolor clear... Photos in a little. Give it another hour to dry.

Beautiful color respray. That's gonna be so pretty when done! Keep up the great work. I agree it is kinda plain jane but still a beautiful car.

Looking good, like the color. John

Nice start. Good shade of Blue for the body style.

That's a beautiful body.
It'll look good no matter what color. That black didn't look so bad.

Thanks guys I'm happy yall like and the black did look very nice. Just so boring for now... This just needed a redo for me to be happy pretty much.

But Ok got the clear on... Just a few teasers for now...



That's it for now. More tomorrow
O and after this round... I'm getting happy lol

Also I figure ill show some shots of the before...




And a little on the plans. May swap the motor for something blown... Idk
Interior to match exterior. And maybe wheels and stance. Might lower it some and get the wheels to sit flush with the wheel wells...

Wow! That's amazing! Great job! The before pictures are amazing too. Love the scale dogs. LoL As far as the engine. Go something Shelby-ish and keep it under the hood. Jus' a thought. The lines of these cars is sexy and sleek. 8)

Nice re-spray Ricky and good colour choice.

Now we know what you look like too.!! LOL :lol:

that looks awesome !

clear turned out sweet. Not much work needed there.

Ok fellas here's what you've wanted to see...

Well that's it for now thanks for lookin guys.

That is going to be one killer Tally! Great work and perfect redo! Keep up the great work! 8)

Nice work. Enjoying this rebuild.

Nice rebuild! That colour is killer! 001 

Fine rebuild. But that stock steering wheels gotta go. IMHO.

Some speed equipment and aggressive wheels would have give that black beauty plenty of interesting attitude.  

Very nice! Love the color!

When did you first build this? I seem to recall seeing it. Nice work on the resto.
