whats going on guys? New here SmokeyHazeEM1 introduction
Figured I would introduce myself. Have scrolled through this site alot for information for both my projects. Have learned alot so figured its time to sign up and created an account!
The names Derek, 22, and I love to paint, weld and fabricate. About to graduate college here in 2 weeks as a Body tech specializing in refinishing at PennTech in williamsport, Pa. Do everything from structural, to none structural, restoration and refinishing. Now enough about me here are my toys.. First is the daily, then the day i picked up the 66, and two of my 86 after i lifted it and swapped axles

Re: whats going on guys? New here SmokeyHazeEM1 introduction
Here are some things ive painted. Im PPG certified in refinishing and handling. I Hate I can only load up 5 pictures at a time so Ill only post the finish products and not the processes.
-First black coupe is my old car. Bought stock and super beat. Had replaced the rear quarter, swapped in a JDM type r, full suspension and gsr leather interior and sprayed it. Really miss this one, its surprised a lot of people. -Second is a tank i did for my buddy who builds rods and bikes -Third is my buddy Jareks EK civic i painted -Fourth one is from the Kid who bought my black one, wrecked it, and bought this one for me to do. -Fifth one is my buddy Lee's EG hatchback. Built/sleeved/boosted making somewhere in the 500whp area forget exact number. All came looking like hell. All were stripped, surfaced, blocked, sealed/based/cleared.

As far as the 66 plans go, I plan on Z'ing the frame in the rear and cupping the front a-arms and doing a bag setup. It needs new rockers and floors so trying to do that asap. There is a show in Harrisburg in febuary we always take things to so planning on having it sitting in the mud by then hopefully. Other than that just get the body straight and run her. It has a 350 and 4 speed already so should be a fun daily. Heres a picture of my 66 parts truck i picked up in the bottom of viginia in the stix for $400. Going to use the doors and some other odds and ends body panel wise. If anyone needs anything specific i may be able to let a decent bit of things go. Also Here is a picture of my buddys essex rod that helped me get my eyes off honda's for awhile and want to work on something else. He build everything himself. 302/t5 bagged all square boxed frame. Strickly Chopped
