If they dressed like that up here, which they dont, not even in the so-called summer.... it would still look like Yeti in a bikini.

Sometimes I really envy you guys down south !!

Thanks for checking out the build. I Checked out your build and it's looking good. I might copy what you did with your gas tank. I mounted my pump on the frame but I want to move it into the tank. I checked out them grommets and ordered one to try. Good luck with your build.

Re: 1965 C-10 LS build

Not much happening with the truck lately. I did get both of the door panels covered. I think they look good for my first try. I had a couple of small cracks in the arm rests, so I had to spend a little bit of time fixing the fibergalss but there ready to either cover or paint, not sure what i'm going to do yet. Here is a couple of pics of one ofthe door cards. The one picture is a little rough but the others are good.









To everyone on the east coast around New York and the Boston area, Be safe it sounds like you guys and gals are going to be getting some rough weather.

Re: 1965 C-10 LS build

Well a little more progress. I was able to get the jams on the cab and the doors done. The plan was to paint the truck and the parts with a flattened clear, but, the clear came out glossy. I mixed the flattening adder the way the supplier told me but it still came out clear. I like the shine. I think I may change my mind on the satin finish. Here are some pictures:

Here are a couple of pics of the arm rests. They don't have any clear on them yet, it's just the hot rod Flatz paint.




Hope everyone has a good weekend.

Very nice slick looking paint, Looks good. What color gray is that? Did you have it mixed? Do you have the paint code for the gray? Nice choice on that blue, looks nice.
