Re: My 1967 Build (Finally)

Boy do I hate waiting on paint to dry but slow progress sure beats zero progress. Let the ospho dry good, scraped off the scale and got some rust encapsulator down, and man does it go on well. Bottle sprays well, wide pattern, and hopefully works well.

Waiting for that to dry, I started trimming the b-pillar piece. These new updated ones are great, curvature is awesome and nearly spot on. Those old ones were just expensive coated steel. Noted the old one had a spot-welded wire loom tab, so I cut one out of some 18ga steel from an old patch, spot welded, and used electrical shrink wrap to replicated factory look. I will paint all these treated areas body color and overspray like the factory lazily did
