Part 8 - Pro Shot GT-500 Shelby Mustang Painted Base Coat Clear Coat 

I think it’s getting harder and harder to stay patient waiting for the next video. What a car you have there Mr. Heasley

This guy TOTALLY understands what he is doing ! When can he do my Bright Red 1972 Ranchero GT with Silver Stripes & matte black hood graphics ? He really cares & it shows in the finished product. SWEET !

attention to detail is second to none

Yay!!I have loved following the progress on this.

I've been waiting for what seemed an eternity for this next episode, the color looks fabulous, love it! Great video as per usual.

Looks amazing!!! I can't wait to see the finished product and hear it run.

Looks absolutely amazing. Thank you, Jerry. Can't wait to see a video in the future of you driving the car and doing a burnout. 😂😂 Seeing the car complete will be awesome.

The knowledge you have about that mustang is amazing. I know it doesn't come overnight, It's from years of experience.

Awesome job Jason! Looking forward to the rest of the assembly.

Very much enjoyed #8, looking fwd to the next episode! Thank you so much for sharing this story with us, really a beautiful transformation & restoration! Thanx for the entertainment! Can't wait for #9!

This is one of my favorite video series I watch on you tube. It amazing how much time, effort and pride is going into this build!

Enjoyed ever episode Not a ford fan but have become a Jason & Jerry fan for sure. Thanks for sharing Now let’s get that engine fired up!

Yyyaaayy new episode,been so been wanting a new episode,these are amazing

That's awesome to see color on this Shelby, what a great series this is

His attention to detail is amazing. If I wanted a Mustang done, it would be from him.

Looks great Jerry. Congratulations mate. Love this series and cannot wait to see this project completed.

I cant even imagine how much something like this would cost. I bet it will be beautiful when finished

Awesome another great upload… looking forward to seeing you guys this weekend.

👍Purrrrrrrfection!

Ok. I think I've got it all down. Now, let me go do some barn find hunting as, easy peasy, new classic.

Oohhhboy you're back I've been waiting.

Wow, Jason, you are a true artisan, your work and explanation while you work is amazing you definitely know your stuff I wish you good happiness and luck in the future I'm mesmerised me in the quality on how you work and conduct your self 😊😊

Thanks Again Jerry, Been waiting again for progress, and here it is!

I remember when Drew Alcazar was the man When I went to see him at is “shop”, I realized he farmed everything out

Just watched every episode 😂 Not a Shelby Fan! But I’m a fan of the Shelby enthusiasts!!!!! Top effort guys 🫡🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Please Sir, complete the Shelby restoration series and show us what the final state of the finished project looks like completed, even footage of it being re assembled piece by piece would be greatly appreciated, as I am a retired former spray painter myself and enjoy a well done project such as yours... Hoping you will get some time to take footage and edit it as needed and I look forward to seeing it here online on Utube.👍🙏👌

Oh so nice. That red just pops !

So happy to take this journey with you!

The guy doing the work is one of the best I have ever seen. Well done Jerry!

Absolutely gorgeous! When the color goes on, it gets real. Nice to see your Shelby coming along.

Fantastic work. Please don't make us wait 6 weeks again for the next video please.

I'm not going make a comment on the colour until I see it out in the sunshine. I like it but I want to see if I love it

Great videos!!! Love seeing the process

What do I think now? I think Jason knows what he is doing.

Fantastic work!

Looking real good. Same base and clear I used on my car except it's Mineral Grey.

That is amazing, Jerry. Stunning stuff. So happy for you, my friend! - Ed on the Ridge

I could listen to Jerry dissecting a Rat, Velvet Voice!

PURE GENIUS

Verry very nice

Lucky Man Jerry 🎉❤🎉 GOOD 4 You my Friend

I was surprised to see that he doesn't cover his hair when he's spraying!

Nice work Jason. What is the brand/ name of the self leveling seam sealer that was used?

Not sure which I have the bigger crush on...the car or Jason's attention to detail!

unreal ! please upload the next episode asap 🙏

Cars of that era were not so flawlessly painted. Cousin had a. 66. In blue and the passenger side fender kept flaking dealer repainted three times til they replaced fender. Found out workers wood before paint sabotage finishes with solvent so much that dealers look bad😊

Educational to follow thank you

My hair never looks that good coming out of the booth!

I would love to have those discarded spray guns

Do you have a cost estimate for whole process? What a transformation.

What’s the timeline for the restoration? It seems like it’s gone by fast on RU-vid

Base coat does not wipe off with soap and water. It's solvent based.

Is your plan to show the car for a couple of years than drive it, or never drive it ? I drive my 2011 Shelby, which I bought new, and I remember how painful the first scratch was. I can't imagine how painful that will be on that beautiful Shelby..

How much would a paint job like this cost?

The whole series i am constantly thinking about one question again and again. Where is the engine? or radher do you have one allready sorted out? Cant sleep because of that every episode 😂. Bur really What a nice bodywork indeed. loking forward to engine info as it was not with the car as far as i know right?

I would never use the DP epoxy primer as a sealer, that's why PPG makes a sealer.

Awesome paint job. Is that a solid red or metallic?

When he was spraying the roof I noticed he was touching the car won't that contaminate the paint with the oils from his fingers?

I thought you are suppose to wait 30 days after epoxy priming to allow all the primer to shrink.....before you spray the final red color and clear coat.

Where is the Hood....???

Jerry. Man you beat the process to death on this one. Even asking the dude to call you on the phone to fill-in the details in the post-edit. So much repetition in the commentary. It was difficult to watch. Just let the man make magic.

Warum kann man das ganze nicht in deutsch schreiben? Kann leider kein Englisch!

first of all, only 65 and 66 were truly a Shelby. Second, why are you insisting on everything being factory correct and concourse, yet using the wrong paint for a concourse restoration? do it right, or don't do it at all.

Single stage urethane has every bit the gloss, DOI, and durability of base/clear. In fact, single paint is clear with pigment in it and is activated with the same hardeners as clear. The most obvious preference of BC over SS is when the color is metallic or there are stripes that you want to bury in clear, which is not how they were originally. Single stage paint is what was used originally and will show color when wiped with a cloth with compound, just as it would have originally. And making them the way they were, not the way we wish they were is the whole point.
