Wow. Pretty enamored of both the spirit and execution of the build. Thanks for taking time to post.

**IronCanine** · 07-25-2021, 01:38 PM

Got to see this one in person this weekend. And as you might imagine, it is all that and then some.

Kinda stalled a little..had to fix a dent on our 2002 SS, transfer case
in my 87 V10 went down plus my 72 Suburban died just been one thing after another, plus one of the fenders that was hanging in the paint booth fell
putting a small ding in it...just a little setback..

It's always something isn't it? I smashed a deer in my econo cruiser and then had to resort to my 71 Camaro as the daily. The last 2 summers I'd daily it no questions asked. But after whacking a deer and driving in the dark all the time makes me leery of driving it knowing the deer are running rapid right now.

52napco · 12-12-2021, 09:58 AM

We hung the fenders to make sure the lines were spot on before
Painting them..nothing like original metal for a great fit..my buddy
will paint them Monday

**davischevy** · 12-12-2021, 11:12 AM

It's great to see progress. My original doors are in the body shop. Fingers crossed.

Looking sweet and a beautiful restoration so far!!

Just curious if you have any good reference points/measuements to go along with my thread on two tone paint lines and moulding mounting holes? One question i have is the paint line coming off door to front a straight level line?

Once again congrats on the job so far! Love that color combo!

52napco · 12-25-2021, 09:41 AM

I'll check next week...my painter buddy has been sick with covid
again (he's vacd and booster lol) so when we get them on I'll take some
Good pics for you

52napco · 01-24-2022, 07:22 PM

Got my cowl and fenders on today

**IronCanine** · 01-24-2022, 07:31 PM

Nice.

**Louisvillekytruck** · 01-24-2022, 07:43 PM

**Joesjunk** · 01-24-2022, 09:17 PM

That’s such a great color!
What did you use on your brake booster? Is it plated or painted?

52napco · 01-24-2022, 09:27 PM

I'm not a spray paint type of redneck...lol. Just boosters in CA restored it
