Paint & body work

Was stripped mostly to bare metal, prepped in epoxy primer and built up with 2K primer for final paint work in a PPG Porsche GT Silver with PPG clear coat. Entire inside of car and outside painted including inside car, trunk engine bay done with engine out of car etc. Entire bottom of car updated.
