Perfect, Darrell! Now I think I need a jar of that in the shop! :haha: Speaking of shops.... I'm moving the Bee today down a few buildings to the new, temporary, smaller yet fully functioning, rental shop. So of course, I had to get few shots outside. Wish the sun was out, but at least it didn't rain on the push over to the new digs. A far cry from jumping SF steeets! I think I averaged about 2mph.... but man, with no engine in there, looks like I'm cruising over the streets in the Russian District as the chase begins! :biggthumpup:

More to come....

Cheers

Let the bidding begin!!!

Hello Dave

Love the build. Can you tell me approx how many hours you have in body repair and painting alone (not mechanical work and not reassembly of the car)


Thanks Dave

Wow! Thanks, guys! I appreciate the compliments! Dave.... responded to your PM. I'll post up here after you reply. More later this week!

Cheers
Dave

Well..... let's see:hmmm: when the car was down to a shell, metal work was a complete one-piece floor, two lower quarter panel patches, and some minor patches here and there. I'd say maybe 60hrs in rust repair metal work. Bodywork, start to finish, is roughly 450hrs. Remember that roof? :rolleyes2: Wetsanding and buffing would be another 40hrs at least. Then add on top of that another 500hrs to pay someone to fix my screw ups!:bs: But seriously.... I'd say from a shell to finish paint is around the 560hr mark.... plus or minus a little. I know the Bee I had well over 700hrs into it, and actually lost count... but that car is as long as the Hindenburg with as many facets in the bodylines to deal with! "The curves, the lines, there's so many waves, ladies and gentleman...Oooh the Humanity!" Ahem..... where was I? :smile: Hope that helps and understand I'm not a shop.... or a professional ... or even know what the heck I'm doing! Your times may vary.....

Cheers:beers:
