Default xmodcanuck's 1st paint job - enzo ferrari

Well I got this back in March and I finally got all the stuff I needed to work on it. I've never painted anything like this before and I don't really have a place to do it at home so I figured I would spray it at work. There are a couple problems with that. I don't want to leave it at work because some idiot will surely knock it over and wreck it. And my work is dusty. So I had to figure out a way to get it home after I painted it that wouldn't cause damage to the paint. So I took a dummy chassis and mounted it to a wood stand. I made for the stand a swivel platform so I could mount the stand and spray into the exhaust of the paint booth. Lastly I made a plexi-glass dust cover so I could cover it all and bring it home.

Here's what I started with


Got it mounted and shaved the mirrors




And then in the paint booth




Drying at home waiting for the 2nd color






I am phenomenally happy with how it has turned out so far.

Q & C welcome.
