Default My new $60 paintjob!!!!

Hey guys took 6 days of body work and like 2 hours painting but
I think it came out awesome. Let know what you guys think.
I started out by flaring all the fenders and then went to town on
all the rust I could find.
PS this was my first time tackling body work.
And now in all it's rustolium goodness

Yup just regular rustolium, I thinned it a tiny bit like 10%
mineral spirits and then 2 coats and it's over. Works
awesome, but now I need to wet sand and polish.

Paint gun, rolling takes way too long, and I would have needed like 6-8 coats to cover.
