Parttimers?

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

No Sometimers. :lol:

Wish granted

I'm shooting single stage right now. My two tone gray will be base and then I will clear the whole thing.

:haha: X4

Got the outside of the doors painted as well as the cab. I'll get the two tone done soon. Then set the cab on the frame and hang the doors and hope and pray they line up.

Outstanding!!!

That thing is gonna stand out in a crowd :thumbs:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Joe these pictures don't do the cab justice. You should see it in person (like I just did).:lol:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Shannon,
I would love to
Wish I were closer,
Alan would have to call my wife to make me go home:lol:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Fantastic!!! Beautiful work. I can't wait to get mine to this point.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

AWSOME Allan :metal::metal: You must have had a "woodie" while you were painting it. Looks great.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Thanks Joe, that's the plan. Advertising has to catch the eye. All I'll need then is a bunch of Hooters girls around it. :lol:

Your making me blush now.:lol:

There wouldn't be any phone calls, we'd work all night.:lol:

:thumbs:

Who me??? When you said that I thought about Joe's avitar on dial up. BTW thanks! :lol:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Damn! Mirror finish on the doors! Im happy for you Alan,I know its a great feeling.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Wow. Good to see the progress.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Lets do the math...

Joe + Alan + Hooters Girls Does not = all night truck work..:lol:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Cant wait to see it... looks awesome! Keep feeding us pictures.....

Re: My 1965 build thread

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Damn that makes me want to get mine to that stage. Looking good Allan. Tonight I'm sanding till my fingers bleed. :metal: Wish my doors looked like that.:uhmk:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

:haha: :haha:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Did somebody say Hooter Girls!!! I'm there. Your only on the other side of the country. Just a short Motorcycle ride. :rolleyes:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

:metal::metal::metal: Alan, that paint is beautiful!!!

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Great job Alan. Wish I was at athat point in my project. :ennyd:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Hey Alan where are you from Aiken, SC? I'll be there in Aug.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

the paint looks great im hoping to see mine like that by july

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Wow! Looks nice Alan!!!!:metal:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Thanks Inverter!! They did slick out really nice. I wet sanded with 1000 today getting ready to two tone tomorrow if time permits.

Thanks Haetwagon, progress is good.;)

Thanks David!! My addition=good times. What happens in the shop stays in the shop.

Thanks Taylor, give me a shout and swing by. Weather permitting I should be in Canton this weekend

Thanks Jason!!! Hey do you have any pics of the two tone tape line on the windshield post? I could really use a good reference. I think I know where it goes. Or anybody else could post up a pic of where the two tone breaks at the lower corner of the windshield.

Keep digging Dave you'll be there soon. It took me almost 2 years too get to this point. I was getting the shop built during that time and then I got tangled up with Miata's for a short time.

Sure does

That would be awesome if you came out this way. The chances of me getting to CA is slim to none. Couldn't you picture a bunch of Hooters girls around my truck.

:thumbs:

:thumbs:

It will happen before you know it.

No, I'm from North Georgia

Thanks!! Can't wait to see your progress

Thanks Tim!!

I sure can. With you in the drivers seat, and a big smile on your face. :aw:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Aiken is right above Augusta. I would love to see your truck with Hooter girls also!

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Wet sanded the cab tonight. It's almost all done. It sucks to sand on shiny paint, but it's just part of the process that I'm doing.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

you made me jelous so I painted today too... so there...forgive the haze from the flash..... it does not look like that.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

I do I do... I feel like my day was not waisted.. and your cab is going to look great... I think when you clear over single you realy get a deep look

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

It's like truck porn in here..

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

I'll look for those pics when I get home. If I don't, I'll take some.

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Yea with guilt though. :haha::haha:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Check out the pics, I agree

:lol:

Thanks Jason, I'm going to hang the doors and tape it from there.

:haha:

Doors got 2 toned and cleared. First pic is of the fine line tape.

Re: My 1965 build thread

I feel like such a slacker :(

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

I meant to say truck porn without the guilt. But I knew you knew what I meant.:lol:
The colors look great together. Are you going to add a pin striping to the color line? It probably won't need it. Nice job Allan. :metal:

Re: My 1965 build thread
 

Thanks Joe, now go get something done and post up.

Thanks Dennis, I'm going to leave it as is for now.

Re: My 1965 build thread

Nice work,
