Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Looking good Keith.Progress is progress right ?
 I know how your feeling.I'am in the middle of blasting /priming all my body panels now.Its not fun,but its a step closer to being done. Keep plugging away. I vote for a white grille btw.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Looks good! I agree with the Matte Black for radiator and core supports. It'll look clean and go along with anything else you choose.

I'm hoping to get the cab off this weekend and start working on that. I really need to get my but in gear and get the cab and doors done over the next few months. Have I mentioned how much I despise doing bodywork, I actually don't mind painting but the priming and sanding sucks and I'm running out of patience fast.

Good call on the black for the radiator support and parts you really can't go wrong with black for these parts

like most guys have told me, painting is actually the easy part. What it takes to get to paint is the hardest. Bodywork and prep is a real PITA.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
So you're beginning to see what everyone's been talking about? Does this mean you'll be spraying the red when it comes time for it? What you've done looks good so far. Keep it up!

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Yesterday I got the core support mounted back up to the frame and bolted my radiator cover on as well. I ran to the local Pepboys and picked up some universal aluminum grill screen and some epoxy. I used the epoxy to mount the grill on the backside if the cover, turned out pretty nice
I also got the hood off and unbolted the cab from the frame so that I can hopefully get that off today.
