Re: Inside bed finish quality

Bed looks good Pickmup.

I'm just hoping that the few misc small dings I miss don't stick out when complete. I'm just not going to skim coat the entire bed and worst case scenario is that I'm not happy with it and them will put a light texture on the bed floor and reshoot.

John - I wish I were that patient to make the pieces and attempt to make the bed flawless. Did you see that episode of Dream Car Garage where they were restoring a 70 LS6 ElCamino and they made an aluminum bondo spreader that was profiled just like the bed and then made an urethane sanding block to finish it..........That's what you HAVE to do when you have $150K highly collectable ElCamino!
