Its been a while in the making, but I've finally began to painting the golf cart today. Dad let me use his devilbiss paint gun to lay down the first coat of a big project for me. Its going to be impossible for this to turn out as well as I would like, mainly because the body is shot to hell. We have several used 01's, so I am using the body from one that was the worst of the bunch. The catch to it all is that if it turns out horribly, we have a forest green body waiting for a car.
Enough of the chat, here is what I'm doing. I'm painting it two tone with high gloss black on the upper half (the stop line is the body line just above the upper top strut mount hole, and the rear body is just above the body line). The bottom half is going to be a deep copper, so it doesn't look like putting on green and purple lol. I'm also going to run a midnight blue single pinstripe over the seam of the two colors. I'm sorry I don't have any pictures of it yet, but I just painted the upper half of the front cowl today and was so excited that I didn't take the camera, and I wanted to go a head and share this with you all.
Oh, also we might be getting two tone black and copper (seating area) seat covers for it..... arrgggh I'm just really excited, I've wanted to do this for about 16 years.... since I was about 4'5" and helping "daddy" paint as a reward for doing well in math LMAO.
Have a great one
