1970 javelin SST

aww TY I must admit I had soooo much fun and its had its moment where I thought I was going to cry. when I bought mine it was sold as a donahue but further investigation showed that it wasnt.. A few things point that it might have been (altough quite a few things point that it wasnt) I decided to keep the wings and the donahue look. its just a gorgeous car no matter what you do.

Yes I am blessed with great family and friends some who thought me lots and others who are just always willing to help. My dad thought me ALOT of body work. and I am spoiled beyond wods that I get to use his garage, his tool and pick at his knowledge when I am stuck. The rear wheel well and the quarter panel were really really really really (did I say really? lol) bad. I found some out of fiberglass. then Dad said he would try to make me some. after hours on hours on hours of banging, cutting, more banging, then weld then more weld, then more banging, then more weld I must say I think father and daughter make a wicked team! the panels look great. planethouse had some and there is one supplier that had some and I believe he might have be in WI. super nice guy. shucks I am going to feel bad for not remembering let me go check my emails in case I kept it. brb

last coat of primer


next coat of white sealer and white paint


then first coat of orange


still not the perfect orange that I want so on goes the gold pearl


then something to bring out the beautiful quarter panel

and a little special something to remember my 2 grandmothers and my mother who I all lost to cancer. (my mother was a self admitted frogaholic and each rose is my grandmothers favourites flowers.



the orange is now called sunshine orange but you cant walk in a paint shop and order since they matched my nail polish bottle :)

Looks great Sophie! Would like to see more pics of your final results.
