new member, old project, some pics, and a 3 week deadline
i traded my 71 to my friend for his sebring coupe, he is fired up about finishing this truck. we're trying to get it painted and on the road in 3 weeks. user name is >]{roo]{ed<, from baton rouge. he works in the dupont paint store that i use. this thread will show pictures of the progress we will make over three weeks of working evenings and weekends. he hasnt decided on the paint yet so this thread will be linked to photoshop and yall can paint it however you want, the best looking one will go on the truck in 3 weeks. heres some pics of how it arrived at his house. progress pics coming when i get my camera.

A good friend of mine runs a body shop, I'm often impressed at how fast they can turn something like this around when they put their minds to it.

The right people, the right tools and a couple bags of cash can get a lot of otherwise impossible things done very quickly,and never say never!!!!!!!!

Krooked has been workin on this thing balls to the wall. doors are shaved, and electronics are done. interior is painted, new dash pad, factory radio, buckets from 9- chevy, carpet from my 72, painted dash bezel, blue dash lights, and bowtie door sill plates. when i left my friends shop last night they were planning on priming the whole thing for the last time that morning. it might get painted this week. i have pics but they must be messed up because it wont let me view the email.

reminds me of stories from my dad's youth. He had a buddy named charlie that used to paint for an Earl Scheib. He'd show up to work and paint with a lucky strike hanging out of his mouth, a plastic bag over his head and a pair of house shoes.
And just in case you guys think that this guy didn't know what he was doing, from the pics I've seen, the guy was a Da Vinci with the spray gun. My dad street raced a 62 bel air that he took to charlie to get painted. Said "do whatever you want to it." Charlie started by laying a layer of white, then set the pressure reeeallly low and shot black and red spiderwebs on it, and did the same treatment to the wheels (steelies with dog dishes). then he cut and buffed it. Dad has a pic of that car where he's taking a picture directly over the hood, and the reflection on the hood is mirror smooth. Amazing.

I guess I'll be the one to ask.Why didn't you use a booth?
I have turned out some nice paint out of a watered down dustbomb garage,but you have to pick the day when the wind isn't blowing  Can't wait to see the finished truck.

Wow, I think if/when I repaint my truck I'm going for a two tone. Never really seen one before on our trucks. Most of the time it's solid paint with flames. hehe. But I like it.
