While I was waiting for some things to dry I mounted the onboard air compressor, and re-painted the quadrafollio (cloverleaf) emblem. This was a special edition Alfa so I thought it should go back on

Re: S/ST-S/G Alfa Romeo Spider Roadster
 

Ok these were the last steps before painting, a final 400 and scuff pad all over sand. About a 2 hour cleanup of the shop. Then another wash down and tape off then the black sealer.

Great idea! Insulating the shop with all those big checks.😉

Glad you made it.
Didn't see anything happening while driving thru the pits. Raining
Looking forward to seeing it tomorrow.
🤘🤘🤘

You gotta stop by. Got here just before the heavy rain hit so I got to drive around a couple miles around the pits. Everything seems good. I was able to set the rpm on the stop and was also able to check the alignment. Everything seems great so far can’t wait till tomorrow. Final paint pics coming up tomorrow

Re: S/ST-S/G Alfa Romeo Spider Roadster
 

Well most should see it this weekend so here comes the final stages of the build
Laying on the color, this is a single stage paint so after spraying I wait overnight to tape up the stripes and finish with clear coat before the 18 hour recoat time.

Re: S/ST-S/G Alfa Romeo Spider Roadster
 

Ok now lay down the black base, mix up my pearls with the marbleizer and top them with an intercoat clear let set up and lay down the clear!

Re: S/ST-S/G Alfa Romeo Spider Roadster
 

Clear laid out nice so a quick buff and time for re assembly

Re: S/ST-S/G Alfa Romeo Spider Roadster
 

Last few things to do. Made drivers compartment cover and covered it with the same material I used for the door panels
finish putting on a few little parts here and there like the wheelie bars etc. got all the lights working, throw the tag on and away we go.

Just dropped Dad off at the track as I had to work today and he’s going to work on the car to figure out what is wrong with it. Hopefully get a chance to see the car tonight or tomorrow as it was still in the trailer. Looks good so far, kind of reminds me a little of Siepels car out in D7 (I know differ t type of car).
