Nice job on the '57, Dennis! Sounds like you're staying busy as well.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Cleaned up the 57 so I can deliver it. It was covered with overspray, and looked like crap. Looks like I just finished it again. Next is the engine compartment. The 454 will look great again too.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I pressure washed it up on the rack, and wiped it down. Then masked everything off and repainted the parts that had overspray. Which was a lot. Like the rear springs, parts of the frame, and even the rear end.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
The taillights on your truck are really coming in nice!
Are you going to be adding side markers, and if so, what kind?

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
how come just about all of the pictures have such a busy background. it is quite hard to really see what is there esp that one black one in his garage with a black hood and other things behind it. should have a nice clean simple backdrop with out crap sticking out from every which where. now if they were boob pictures, they would quite visible and defined!

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Hey Chris, I've been busy on everybody's stuff but mine. I'm trying to cut down on work so I can do mine. I'm trying to retire, but it's not working.
After the 67 C-10 I'm doing I have a 38 Packard coming in for complete air bag job. Then have a 50 Chevy truck with a S-10 frame conversion. After that I'm not taking any more jobs in. I will have just my 65 Truck and a good friends 40 Ford Woody to finish a frame off restoration. No hurry on that one.
