Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
Looks really good Alan, I wish I could send my truck to you and have you build it so I can sell it. I really need the money. It sucks I cant work on it either!

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
i thought you didn't have to use metal prep on galvanized if you use epoxy?

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
Alan, once again - you’ve shown us your excellent work in great detail. Thanks for the information, as eventually many of us will have to go down this road (or pay massive amounts of cash to have it done) and this grade (class A) of input is invaluable.
Mac. :metal: |
Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
Hey Allan, have you ever thought of opening up your own shop? Or renting a stall at where you work now? It seems to me that people are restoring there cars & trucks rather than buying new ones. If I promoted more, I know I can make more money. It's just word of mouth right now. I'm winding thing down, and want to retire. I only want to work on my stuff.

Allan I think you know plenty. Look at all the Bozo's out there that own shops or are working at shops, and they call them self Professionals. Some people don't know what good looks like. Your work looks better that good. It LOOKS GREAT. :metal:
I'm sure everybody else will agree with me. If that's not a confidence builder I don't know what is. :lol: Nothing ventured, nothing gained. |
Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
Isn't there a senior citizen labor law....:but:..... against that kind of work for a old man like me :lol:
Just go ahead and block it for BLACK PAINT for the same price..........It will really show just how good your work is..........:jest: |

198 you need another truck to build you can buy mine!

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
The sooner you get out on your own the better Allen. I did it ten years ago and never looked back. I might not make as much but I only work as hard as I want to. For me it was more of a health thing then anything else but I 'll never regret being my own boss. When I get tried I quit and go work on my truck.:metal: Oh ya did I mention I'm broke.:lol: But then who is'nt now a days.:lol: Livin day by day and loving it.:lol:

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
Just a quick update. I started blocking and want to show a comparision. I blocked the upper side area and want to show the difference. Here is the RT bedside. You can see all of the defects. So far they are blocking out.
http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...d/DSC00625.jpg Here is the LT side. There is difference. I spent the same amount of time blocking. You can see the block I'm using laying on top. Back to work. http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k1...d/DSC00626.jpg |
Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

I'm at a stand still right now. Ronnie called me while I was blocking and mentioned he might not want side mouldings. I'll still have to block everything except around the moulding holes. |

Here's that Nassau Blue I was talking about. It's a little lighter than the Marina Blue. Both colors are a great choice. :metal:

Owning this vehicle basically makes the statement: "If I can't get laid driving this thing, I'm the most disgusting creature on planet Earth." Mac. :lol: |

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
good video Alan, keep them coming

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
I agree no more pics, you have spoiled us now.........What about a web cam ;)

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic
Instead of a how to video, I could do a how to hour 1-2 times a week via webcam with a membership if I knew how to set it up. It would be cheaper than any school and you could ask questions and sit back and drink you beverage of choice. $30/month with a video of the session for sell to members for about $10 just throwing out some ideas.
