Welcome to another episode of The Eight Nine Garage. In this episode we paint Frankie blue, and clear coat it. Frankie has Rustoleum Smoke Gray on the bottom, and Royal Blue on top. The clear coat is a UPol product, which is a 2K universal clear. Tell me what you think in the comments!
If you've ever seen the episode of @MattsOffRoadRecovery where Matt went to Gumby's Auto Wrecking.... well, Gumby's is where the Morrvair and Blue Steel were parked. Gumby was also the star of "Kings of Crash" on Velocity Channel which is part of the Motor Trend network. @MotorTrendWatch

Youre a funny dude man haha but on a serious note looks great man keep up the great work!
Thank you! Humor makes the world go 'round! I'm glad you like Frankie!
I agree, Shane is a funny man. Good vidya bud.
Man that looks awesome 89. Thanks for the shout out much appreciated.
Thanks Buddy, and you're very welcome. I'd love to see your subs get going!
@@89G me too
As I heard you say before.... Boy howdy that's nice.
Hahahaha, thank you!
😍🤩🤩 Wowzers its like new.
Thanks Noah!! I appreciate your support!
Holy crap that looks literally brand new my man.
Thank you Todd, it's at least presentable now!
The transformation is unreal. The colors you picked are spot on!
Thanks, I am so glad the colors turned out as well as they did. I am really excited!
Looks good Shane o
Thanks Jarek!
Welcome bro keep it up
@@jareklowe5445 absolutely!
Love your work brother
Thank you very much! That means a lot.
Dude that thing looks great! I’ve seen ‘professional’ paint jobs that don’t look that nice. Great work amigo!
I really appreciate that! Thank you very much.
that came out great, love the two-tone. great job!
thank you, I appreciate that!
Nice whatcha doing down that way, also your paintjob turned out epic
Thank you Dan! I'm going to have it done just in time for winter.... well, if we even HAVE a winter.
holy crap I bet that garage door was pearl blue after this :>
LOL, actually, the floor has a blue tint to it now. The door doesn't have anything on it. I plan on redoing the floor, so no big loss there.
Thanks for watching, by the way!
I love this car a lot.
You outdid yourself.
Thank you so much!
Looks good my friend love the color scheme you definitely need to put both cars in the car shows. But get rid of that sign above the door of the house
Lol. I appreciate all of that but the Broncos bit. Lol
@@89G just giving you crap
Looks Great. I'm in the process of getting a truck ready for a rustoleum paint job. Hope mine turns out as well as yours. Thanks for sharing this with us. John
Thank you for commenting... Do you have videos on your truck yet?
@@89G Yes Sir, I have been uploading to my youtube channel.
Awesome job man!
I appreciate it! I am so excited to see this all the way done.
Wow, Shane! People always ask me how I learned to do this or that. Seems I get asked that a lot because I do most anything. I honestly think the reason most people can't do some difficult tasks is that they are afraid to try. So you mess up sometimes. That's how you learn. You don't learn if you don't try. So congrats man. Car looks great. Keep learning!
Thank you! This is my first time doing body work and paint, and it's definitely been trial and error!
Awesome video.. I am restoring an 83 280ZX and a 1979 Datsun 210. A ++ Thanks for showing how it is done. I remember watching Mustangs like yours with that paint scheme kicking butt back on the late 89 and early 90's.
Thank you, I really appreciate it. Those 280Z's are cool cars! Pretty rare around here too. Do you have videos of them?
@@89G Sorry no videos... yet. of the 280ZX yet. You know for my Datsun 210, considering doing that blue and grey mustang paint job. Your looks awesome. That paint job is just right. I do recall they also came in reddish burgundy and grey as well 2 tone.
@@albertomorales9493 yes, my friend had an 87 GT with maroon on gray. Really nice combo indeed!
He looks fantastic! You did a great. Put some ceramic sealer on it and you'll be all set.
Thanks Greg! I need to buy some of that.
Looks really good bro
@@jarenlowe3956 thank you Jaren! 😊
love the car and the color! I'm super excited for you and to see it in person.
Thank you Cody! I appreciate it!! 🙏
Just found your channel, both your Fox's are looking great. I'm in Utah too, not far from you I believe. In the process of restoring my 1988 LX 5.0 hatch. Let me know if ya have any spare parts lol.
Nice! Are you a member of Utah Fox Body Addicts?
@@89G no but I’ll check it out. On Facebook?
@@bryan876 yes. There's also a Utah Fox Body Parts page.
Great content. You did a really good job. Look forward to seeing how nice it turns out after you wet sand and polish it.
Thank you!! I really appreciate it 🙏
Very lit😂 🔥🔥🔥
I really appreciate it 🙏 sorry, I just saw your comment after the app updated.
@@89G no problem at all, anytime!🙏
man does that thing look good , it doest even look like the same car.Its making me want to paint beans now but ive gotta put the intake back on it from where it sprung a little leak from the china wall
Oh man... what did you use for a gasket? Thank you, by the way! Hey... any news on 🥒?
@@89G i used a felpro 1262 gasket and did silocone on the china walls which is what leaked but I really didnt see anything wrong with the silocone . it was making contact all the way across it but im goin to put it back together today and hope it doest leak. I just shot him a text trying to figure out a good time to get together and make the deal happen
@@79beans347 I actually used those rubber Fel-Pro's on Frankie, and used RTV to hold them in. Just an experiment, and it's worked so far. I hope you get a deal worked out soon, BTW! Could be a good little winter project for you!
@@89G yeah i like those rubber end pcs as well and if it had come with those I would have used them for sure cause I used it on my last fox and never had any problems. I like how they wrap around the china wall to keep them from moving. yeah Im hoping that his mind hasnt changed about letting it go but I will find out soon
@@79beans347 agreed. I know some guys don't like them, but if you black RTV them, I think it makes it stronger.
500,,yeah
I sure did. Watch the series to see the transformation.
@@89G start at 500$,put 3,000 in it,,is paying 3500$,,for example,,,click bait
@@willgeee4824 sorry if you feel I click baited you. Fact is, I paid 500 for it. My goal here is to try and show people what you can accomplish with a lot of hard work.
@@89G tru that,,for that response,,I subscribed
Also how long did you wait after spraying the rustoleum until you sprayed the clear? And how long did you wait inbeteeen coats of clear? Awesome job this is exactly how i want to do my 87, thanks for any info you share
I did 4 parts paint, 3 parts acetone, and one part Majik Catalyst/Hardener (P/N 8-0950-4). I waited a week to do the clear so the paint could gas out. I used U-Pol 2882 2K Clear with the standard UP2323 hardener. I want to say it was 1/2 hour between coats of clear. That's one detail I don't remember much, but I know it wasn't a great deal of time. If I could change anything, it would be to use an adhesion promoter on the bumper covers. I'll probably end up doing those again at some point, as there are some bubbles I can see (it's been a year).
@89G awesome thanks for the response man, another question where did you order all the materials?
@@darryl163 Amazon for most of it.... I did get the paint at Home Depot, but it's been cheaper on Amazon lately. I put links in the video description to try and help a little better.
Looks good. That blue looks like bright regatta blue but yours isn't metallic. My 89 GT originally was the bright regatta blue. But somebody had painted it purple which is obviously a bad paint job because it's peeling. I'm going back with the original color and I'm going to use the Spray Max system.
@cassandralesh8536 very nice. I love blue Fox Body's! How long have you owned yours? My white one is an 89.
@@89G i bought this 89 gt back in April and it had been sitting for eight years. I did a head job and replaced the fuel pump and ecu, she's running but it needs an exhaust before i can get it stickered. I paid $550 for it.
@@cassandralesh8536 That's awesome.... that sounds very similar to the story on this 88 in the video. 500 dollar project!!
How much u think ur in to the paint job? I love this.
I am in the process of calculations on that. I'll have it in the next video. Great question!
What a big ole diffrence you made. Got to be worth a good amount now. Don't sell it tho. Unless its to me. 🤣
LOL.... thank you!
What Rust-Oleum blue did you use? Looks beautiful
It is Gloss Royal Blue. Thank you!!
And the gray is called Smoke Gray, just in case anyone is wondering.
@@89G thank you. I'm doing up my 74 f100 atm. Definitely gonna use that colour
@@alexletheby7238 I absolutely love dent side's. IMO, they are the best looking trucks ever built.
@@89G absolutely. Although I am partial to the 72 as it was my first truck. But I love the one I have now. Can't wait to put her back on the road
Question what kind of catylyst did you use? And what kind of clearcoat? Thanks in advance
Answered these in my other response :)
@89G thanks man I appreciate the response, can't wait to do this to my 87gt
