Re: 56 Chevy (RIP)
A little more progress...replaced the lower 4" of the outer door skin. I seam sealed the welds on the inner door bottom and primed it prior to fitting the outer door skin. I'll catch some flack on this but I put a flange on the new lower and used cleco's to fit the panel flat, then SLOWLY welded the seam solid. It did not warp the original steel but the new metal had some mild warpage still. I used a few skim coats of filler and it came out ok. Again, this is patina truck, none of the body work will be perfect and that's alright. I'm currently blending the patchwork into the original paint.
Also sprayed the firewall and pillars with epoxy primer, looks sweet. I just ordered the rear kit for the corvette suspension from Flat Out Engineering. I haven't received it yet but I have to say, Don the owner of Flat Out is great, he answered the phone, answered all my questions, gave me pointers for install and was not rushed at all. Great customer service, super nice guy! |
