Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build
 
Yeah I'm going for it. I'll be out in the garage tomorrow sanding on the truck and get one more coat of primer on it. Then block it and spray the satin green. Then put it back together and finnish the bamboo slat bed floor. I'm trying to get a hold of a trailer, might just rent one from uhaul.

Well i got all the Patch panels done on the lower doors and fenders then finnished up the body work. Sprayed it in a poly prime, now i just need to block sand it and get it ready for the satin green. sucks being a one man show on this build...Need more time in the day.... I would like to get it done for the CPP cruise, we'll see.

Well ive been sanding like a mad man for two days, got my garage filthy. but im done and ready to start cleaning this palce up and start masking it off for paint....

Those chrome wheels with the white walls are really going to POP once you lay the green on the body.

I was thinking how that green is gonna look and I can't wait to see the finished product. I just could'nt ever ride in it, I'd be scared to dirty it up. :lol::lol:

Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build
 
Well i turned my garage into a make shift paint booth and sprayed out the green epoxy sealer custom green mix. Its not a perfect show paint job, just a clean garage street truck look. Maybe later on i might fauxtina it, not sure....More pics as i clean up and start putting it back together. I painted the grille satin white and have the bumpers getting satin white powder coated, shoud get them back tuesday...
