Looking good!....Do you think you will be able to "lay pinch" using your wheel/tire and your porterbuilt susp. Combo?

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Going to be real close......

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Most "normal" people it would take all week. I see you are still capable of playing "Super Keith" during your Holiday break.

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Sorry if i got the snowball rolling so fast. If your going to paint the inside of yours, i am going to have to paint mine. ( Your interior makes mine look nasty). I guess i will blame you for talking me into keeping mine and enjoying it for a while. Hope to get back on mone asap.

Re: Hazel the older Sister....

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

What's the plan for the open portion of the heater box?

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Thanks.....more dumb luck than anything else.....

I fiberglass it up today.....I'll start body working it again it a week or two...

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

I got the core support and radiator/fan shroud body worked and started priming....still need to prime again and block one more time before I'm ready to paint.......

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Never thought of that for a booth. I have done the 2x4's and plasitic sheeting before...

Looking good..

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

That is a great idea for a paint booth!

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Keith,
you maybe gonna have it done for Goodguys Nashville ?? Hope to see you guys there again this year !!!! Don't forget it's in May this year so it should be a little cooler.

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Today I got all the pieces painted...

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Nice work!

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Very nice...heater box came out great.

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Never cease to shock me! Looks killer! These damn trucks! Ha!

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Looks good!

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

1613 Krylon for the support and shroud, or a different color?

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Nope, spend way too much time to rattle can it :lol: It's a custom color (2k urethane) that I got from STP67-72. He painted the chassis and under the hood of his 67 stepside with it and I really like the way it looked so he got me some, I will be painting almost everything under the hood with it.

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Nice job on the build, I also love the paint booth and will implement that for my project. Awesome!!!

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Excuse my lack of knowledge, but what is G2 that you used for the heater box?

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Thanks Keith. I have been out of the auto painting areana since about 1996, seems like alot has changed...I feel so far behind. Seems like the only thing still the same is the PPG DP90 epox primer.

I can't wait to see more progress.

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

They made VOC changes to that stuff too....

Re: Hazel the older Sister....
 

Man , I've always wanted to know what it's like to paint in an eazy up booth.:lol:
