Title: Red & White Fairlane 500 repaint
Post by: ROKuberski on 2013-03-21 22:43
I got my car home a couple of days ago and have started to reinstall all the trim.  I've got the bumpers on and have a good start on the right side trim.

Looks awesome Rich...looks like your chosen shop did right by you! I ain't gonna show this to my wife...she keeps telling me how much better mine would have looked if I had gone with red and white.

Very, very nice.  Drive it on out to So. Cal and show it at the Knott's Fabulous Fords Forever show.  Just kidding, trying to get another freebe plug in for this show to the guys out here on the "Left Coast." lol  Looks like you will have a lot of people saying, wish I'd painted my red & white.

It's looking more and more like a car.  I still have interior work to do and a few misc. items to mount, but I took it for a drive today and it's looking mighty fine.

Great looking Fairlane 500.  I love the clean all original looks.

Thanks for the comments.  It is all original except for seat belts and an aftermarket a/c that I added.  This also caused the replacement of the generator with a GM 12SI alternator since the compressor now sits where the generator was.

I'm not into highly customized cars.  I certainly appreciate them when I see them, but there won't be one in my garage.  My hotrod is a '02 Corvette coupe.
