[@nicholasbedell1577]

You are a master of your craft. My old man will be impressed when I show him this video. Also very informative as you go. Thanks again.

[@jamesshirley5875]

I hope you follow up with, another video showing everything assembled!

[@charliebruceortega8447]

Looks really nice, hope we can see the finished product

[@RedHammerBodyShop]

Looks Awesome Chris, I'm glad to see a video that shows just how much work goes into a complete all over paint job. I am a body shop owner and its impossible to describe the amount of labor involved.

[@TheInfamousProject]

Yep it's unreal what it takes to get nice paint these days

[@nicholasbedell1577]

Merry Christmas. I learned a it takes a good amount of man hours. Thank you.

[@HicksHouseVideos]

Looks good, can’t wait to see it finished!

[@colemccall9237]

Looks damn good for a garage paint job! Nice work gentlemen

[@Justified-z3h]

Your best video yet!

[@jamierobinson6642]

Looks like all turned out really good !

[@henryoddsball2164]

So much work! You fellas did it the right way. Looks great, nice job!

[@ogsuperflygarage]

Excellent work guys! Actually turned out amazing!

[@bit-bucket5332]

Amazing job! It's hard enough in a fully functional body shop. Glad you guys were able to save her!

[@brandon1566]

I feel your pain, I just painted one it had a reaction and all of the panels pulled. Had to strip the entire car down and start over.

[@FoxbodyFPV]

Nice work! It amazes me how me how much paint is now. Just got a quote for a gallon of the ford color I need was $1200 a gallon 🤦‍♂️

[@Mustang8846]

Great work. Especially dealing with the insects, heat and humidity.

[@AlteredStangs]

This is an amazing video Chris! Great job on the Cobra. It looks awesome.

[@TheInfamousProject]

Thanks Steve

[@FoxyMcFoxFace93]

Wow, that looks awesome! Great prep work too. It pays off in the end.

[@JKennedySVT]

Dude. Amazing. Love to see it you guys bringing this cobra back to life!! Killer job!!!

[@TheInfamousProject]

Appreciate that coming from the Teal Cobra Benchmark

[@RobbAllen]

Nice work guys! Go Louis!

[@blainmcdevitt2495]

Looks great guys! Hope he can get it to foxtoberfest. Good luck it’s going to be a sweet ride!!

[@krisf5247]

Amazing work guys! Looks great!

[@Joeshomegarage]

Very impressive! Much nicer than the $800 paint job the previous owner did on my car. I'll be redoing mine this winter hopefully. Curse of the black notch 😫

[@lx1992mustang]

That’s really impressive for a short amount of time. Nice work looks great.

[@3pedalfox]

Inspiring bro! I’m now painting my own car 👍

[@walterm9300]

Beautiful job

[@stevepunnett3575]

This shows why a good paint job cost so much. All the man hours that go into it is crazy.

[@dennish9519]

The body prep work is like 90% of a good paint job.

[@jasongomez2513]

Nice work getting my 1990 frame rails done know

[@jessemas27]

That came out pretty darn good considering your work environment. I would have several recommendations that you probably already know reguarding painting a metalic in those circumstances.

[@williamgroel2880]

Nice work 👍😎

[@Stallionsstable]

Looks good man. Those bumpers can be tedious. I use upol high build primer and dolphin glaze. It’s a little more than the stuff you used but it’s way easier to work and sand with. The fish eyes at the bumper you thought you had were mostly likely an adhesion issue. Bully dog or adhesion promoter on the bumpers will take care of that. 👍

[@whitetailfox1]

My favorite color of 93 cobra

[@patlandymore7035]

Could you share some details about the Sata gun? Really nice atomization and not much overspray in the air. Also seemed to have decent air consumption. All in all an awesome paint job…well done!

[@TheInfamousProject]

Appreciate that. I used a SATA jet x 5500 RP

[@jamiebush1829]

Great work...thanks

[@jjay2283]

really like where you put the small parts to spray (On the back glass).....I am painting mine now in a much smaller garage and space management is key

[@MrMl1986]

Looks sooo good

[@AngelMartinez-uj6bc]

Wow, nice job bro I didn't know you can paint.. 🎉 I Just open my own body shop, so it helps me this tips 💪🏻

[@TheInfamousProject]

Ya I have always loved painting and absorbed as much knowledge from those who painted for me in the past

[@antoniopaulo989]

Im where you are now, finishing stripping my 88 gt convertible now as well, to get a whole paint job. Inside and out as well

[@patrickg7569]

Garage looks like a dealer showroom lol

[@thebeedata9084]

I have a 91 GT I want to start restoring.

[@kevinhightower6140]

Put it together now and let's see if all the pieces match

[@F5.0Nado]

Just wondering what brands you would recommend for body filler, primer, clear coat and degreaser?

[@Lindahlio]

Earned yourself a subscriber. Awesome vid. Polyurethane bumper product question already answered, but what was happening with that prep? Dremel and a carbide bur to "V" the poly before the filler went on? Appreciate your informative vids. Thank you.

[@TheInfamousProject]

That was a crack repair so yes I did a V and then used a 2 part epoxy to repair it.. unfortunately I didn't get it on video.

[@automotiveaddiction428]

Careful with fumes..guy down the street from me just lost over 50k mustang.150k plymouth road runner and most importantly ( his life ) gas leak and welding. always have proper ventilation

[@nicholasbedell1577]

I ask questions. Is that a stock teal color OEM? Is it close enough? Does it matter?

[@orlandowiley1930]

That's a very nice color. What's the name of that teal paint color

[@mikemartinez2793]

Another nice job 👌.. Hey, man. I'm trying to get a hold of you to get my car in your schedule... I have to put a deposit and lock in my space. Let me know.

[@TheInfamousProject]

Shoot me another email as I assume you did already. I'm booked out a while and trying to sort out 2025 still

[@mikemartinez2793]

@@TheInfamousProject ..coo can u lock me in for 2025 ... I can put a deposit to lock my spot...just let me know

[@BX0207]

What would a job like that go for.. 20g - 30g..?

[@daleyary4965]

Hi what time of product paint you used?

[@lr7993]

🔥

[@johnsmith-qz4bv]

Turned out great really like that color .. how did u like the high tech paint ? And what clear did u use.?.. I’m looking at the high tech ebony black to spray my dodge charger.. just wondering how u liked using this product.? Nice work guys

[@TheInfamousProject]

Only used the primer and the clear. Both worked really well

[@markweber7275]

Can’t recall were the Teal Cobras single stage paint?

[@toddivey1032]

Nice. I have a 92 hatch saleen clone kinda lol. It's jewel green sunroof great leather 80k mile car. Great car. Question, I want to keep it pushrod, I'm been looking at the blueprint motors new 347 sbf design with sniper 2? That kinda the question rebuilding a factory block or a 4 bolt blueprint. I would like your opinion. Drop in sounds cool. I dig your content. Keep it coming. Would appreciate any advice, I live an 1.5 hrs s.e. of Austin, so not too far away. ??

[@TheInfamousProject]

Godzilla swap.. that's the pushrod answer lol

[@toddivey1032]

@TheInfamousProject Very interesting answer. Thank you btw. My eyes have been opened to a proper alternative. Thanks again.

[@rr122608]

You both did a fabulous job. 👏 Better than Maaco paint jobs. 🤪

[@TheInfamousProject]

LMAO... I'd hope so! They barely even wiped your car down or masked it lol

[@khalid95eG]

If your high build isnt covering over 180 scratchs then you deff jeed to switch primers. My high build litterally covers 80 scratchs without a worry... doesnt shrink back imto them either. Mines also a High solids tho not no hi tek

[@sjagain]

Under $2000. What were the material costs? Did that amount include tape, plastic, sandpaper, and all prep materials?

[@TheInfamousProject]

Yes... But not labor, compressor, paint gun.

[@sjagain]

@@TheInfamousProject Very nice.

Was it originally black? Or was it teal? I’m new here!

It was black originally
