Re: 55 2nd series
Well my count down is on I'm hoping to be able to drive my truck to Back to the 50's here in St. Paul in 30 days. I know the truck will not be done but I'm hoping to have it painted and drive-able.

Re: 55 2nd series
I seen it in person last year at a car show at least the CI they had sprayed on half a girdle a the threw a ice cube on both side and the uncoded side melted instantly and the other side took quite a while and you could touch that side without burning yourself

Re: 55 2nd series
Yeah I'm hoping that the spot on the roof helps I wish i could have coated the whole thing. I may have to buy some more i wanted to get it in the doors but it took 2 gallons of each to cover all of that.

Re: 55 2nd series
The inner fender painted (the one that was not). Finished off the lizard skin. I'm glad it is a long weekend going to get a ton of work done.

Spent most of the day getting the firewall smooth and put the cab back on the frame for the last time.
