    I wish it was a GTS, it was my son's toyota corona mark2

    I put primer on the body today now the fun starts I will let it dry for a couple of days, then sand it back and fill in any holes then prime and sand again with a guide coat to make sure she is nice and smooth ready for the color coat.

    Did some more this weekend I got the paint down and gave the neck some more clear. Its got a couple of pinholes and some of the grain is showing through but overall its pretty good just have to fix it up a bit then clear coat it. I went for a ice blue color. I would love a white mother of pearl pickguard, they have strat and tele ones in the store but not bass ones. I have seen some on ebay but would have rather spent my money here. gettin close now I am really digging some of the builds going on here as well.

    Thanks Guys

    The color is pretty good, my daughter pick it out. I have one can left and think a matching tele with hot rail pickups would look nice Tomorrow it gets the buffer, so should be nice and shiny and ready to be put together.
