A little more panel progress
Bill still needs to paint the dash, firewall and jambs. He started on a little color sanding in the meantime. When I finally get this last chunk home I had planned on busting my rear and knocking this thing out. Ive decided Im just going to take it slow and make it my fall and winter project instead. Hopefully be ready by spring ?

Re: A little more panel progress
Once you go black, you'll never go back, right? Looks nice, so far. If it was mine, my buds would be jealous. Looks good.

Re: A little more panel progress
Man someone had balls to paint all that flat sheet metal black looks like the body man did one hell of a good job on getting it straight.

Re: A little more panel progress
Thanks guys. There will be no graphics of any kind and no pinstripes. Emblems are all shaved. All new exterior chrome pieces. Im hoping that will be a cool look...Still undecided on wheels and tires...except that they will be 15's, all four corners the same size....probably..lol.

Re: A little more panel progress
You should put a killer sound system in that thing. Or a lounge.

Re: A little more panel progress
Man, that is looking good!!! I've been worried about going with a dark color on mine, but all that black is giving confidence. I'm thinking a fairly dark blue for mine. Say, can you take a few shots of your stand that it's on? I'm going to need to make one for mine pretty soon.
Panels Forever!

Re: A little more panel progress
Body and paint started 3/06. Here is the hood done on 6/06, fenders and grill were done at the same time. Then the doors and barn doors were done by 6/07. The barn doors are going to have red plexi (a 60's thing) they will look a little darker red when installed on the panel.
Alot of things happened in my body/painter guys world during this time. Im just happy this is getting close to coming home almost to 2 and a half years later. Unfortunatly my new shops wiring did not pass inspection today. So it will be another week or so before I can even start using it. I swear its always something around here....so much BS has happened its just gotten to where its laughable. Ill put a build thread up when I'm officially able to start putting her together.

Re: A little more panel progress
Can't wait to see it altogether. My next door neighbor growing had a shortie '71 or '72 black Chevy van with the red plexi windows. It also had red teardrops in the rear. It had 15 x 10 Keystone Classics and a mural of the Molly Hatchet Flirtin' with Disaster album cover. That think was cool as an ice cube to me when was a kid!
