New Member needs advice on Paint

[Joseph K.]

Hi

I am a new member and have 92 and a 69 roaster. The 92 is my weekend driver and the 69 is my project car. I spent the last year in my spare time working on a frame off on the 69. I finished replacing everything on the frame and the interior and rebuilt the engine and transmission. I am currently going to have the car painted by someone else and need advise on the places where the car should be painted the original color yellow. For example the shelf by the back of the engine bay under the hood is to be black but I hear there should be some over spray by the corners. I bought the judging books but they don't seem to cover the paint requirements that well. Does any one have a PDF of the painting requirements?

I have read allot of the posts on this site and found that the NCRS guys are much more informed than other sites and I look forward to the NCRS membership.

Thanks

Joe

Joe,

Via the link below I have pictures of my original paint 72 - also a yellow car.
Feel free to look at the photos and see what should be yellow and what then received blackout after the color coat.

Looking at an original car is far better than anyone trying to explain it to you.

Yep. Probably a couple of hundred, and I really do need to take some more.
No, I'm not kidding.
