The panel needed a lot of sanding to get them somewhat straight. the primer was a little new for me. I had originally planned to just spray them with some auto industrial primer in a spray can. I noticed on one of my mold releases the PVA stuck to the primer and pulled the primer off my buck. So this time I used the Hi-fill polyester primer. I had never used it before and was really concerned about overspraying my nieghbors car or something. You mix a catalyst in it just like polyester resin and sprayed it with a HVLP gravity feed spray gun from Harbor Frieght. It was kind of amazing because anything that did not hit the panel dried before it hit the ground. i'm a believer in these high volume low pressure spray guns. Used almost a whole gallon...

Had the Tribute Rumbler there and it never has a problem. Always runs even with grandma's 1970 500 ci cadillac motor. Always starts...

Here is a pic of Spidey hiding behind the Crimefighter. His mom sent me the picture and it is pretty cool. It was great that the kids love the cars so much.

The Big Kahuna looked great and was a hit with the fans even though it doesn't steer and chain is not connected. the goal was to get it primered black at the very least

This car took me so much time to get ready it wouldn't start, electrical problems, Airbag system didn't work. I literally took off each wheel and spent hours fixing what should have already been done. Then I get to the even and the key won't turn in the ignition. Luckily the airbag worked so we could take it off the trailer. But it looked great under the lighting...

Ok I'm BaaaacccK!. Lol. I got a lot of stuff done on the Batpod motorcycle which has nothing to do with Lambos but I did learn some stuff about primer. I ran into so many nice Bat fans at the Dark Knight premier. Hope you don't mind me sharing....Some Bat fans around the Crimefighter Extreme

Naw not at all. The trailer was hand built and looks pretty bad but it tows very nicely. Good to pick up stuff when you need to keep the price low. Lol

Here is the roadster on our Okie trailer. The car is so low it trailered so effortlessly behind the truck.

The latches and shocks didn't get installed but I have the items and I'll mount them myself. There was a little consideration given back to me for that.

Oh my bad, I have gotten some negative vibes about Rob but I like him. Sorry about that I read it wrong. Here's that Fiero engine and it still runs with the new radiators. Unfortunately that engine is being replaced...lol

Here's a pic of that nice door. Going to reset the door hinges higher and inward like the coupe.
