Re: tuba trucks

Michael from the UK wanted the patina truck after he saw it at the cruise-in last year. since then a lot of mechanical upgrades were made and the interior has been redone. which brings us to the paint job. the truck had all the usual rust spots and a bunch of the typical dents and scratches. all fixed... and once the body was solid and straight we agreed on a faux-tina paint job. the work is about half done, starting with a thick coat of grey primer that was sanded down then another coat of black primer and finally a coat of red oxide. after a scuffing, 2 coats of baby blue were done with a flattening agent added. then the fun begins... pics...
