IN Repaired and Repainted Med. Blue Steer Wheel - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

HeavyMetalChevy · 04-07-2012, 12:13 AM

Cash3481 has first dibs since I originally started this for him. This wheel began with minor cracks which I ground out for good adhesion and then filled with epoxy resin. Then it was carefully sanded and shaped using a Dremel rotary tool. Prepped with adhesion promoter then shot with HIGH QUALITY acrylic enamel paint which was color matched to a 72 med. blue door panel. The structural integrity is all there. Very slight grain but the color and overall look is WHOAH!!! I will be doing many of these in the future. Need cores!!! One crack still present in housing portion.

$100 shipped CONUS

ahhhhh shucks!!! I was waiting to hear back from you because I just noticed your massive parts thread and was interested in a trade for a few things... Oh well. I guess you might be getting your money right back!!! lol Thanks!

Duane

**Cash3481** · 04-14-2012, 12:09 AM

Lol... I always like getting money. I'll answer in the thread. I had someone ask about the front suspension shipping and I just got another truck. 68 lwb 1/2 ton. It's too nice to part so it's selling whole after I fix a few things.

That turned out really nice... I may have to go through you for my replacement wheel! Mine is medium blue as well, but I am without a donor.

HeavyMetalChevy · 04-14-2012, 02:24 AM

I am working on getting a stockpile now. They will continue to get better and better. Just keep reminding me. I will take care of you. This paint will last a very long time as well!!!

Collin · 04-15-2012, 11:42 AM

Sounds good, Duane. I will bookmark this thread and harass you about it soon. Thank you, sir.

I don't know I think you might have gave up on this old dog a little too soon. I showed it some new tricks!

Jerry Jones · 04-26-2012, 08:10 PM
