Re: 68 project

Actually if you look at post 546 page 22 you will see the color that is the color the entire truck will be. This the gray rimer I sprayed yesterday. It is a primer fill which is good to help fill imperfections and light scratches. I did use epoxy primer over the bare metal.

Sounds like you got it covered, no pun intend. Post 546, I'm on my way. Interesting color, like a Green Slate, jade, subtle. Is there a name for it?

cknfrmr has been doing most of the work. I had good drive yesterday, I am really liking it when I can actually assemble something with knowing I do not have to take it back apart.

Re: 68 projecrecreatt

Larry Larry Larry although I would love to take credit for doing work on your truck that is all you. All I do at the shop is ask questions and learn. Then go home and try to recreate the small simple things. Like redoing my vent windows. You are the master.

If you would not have asked I still would not have taken my wings apart and painted the frames, nothing wrong with asking questions so I can lead you in the wrong direction

Yes, I must keep the gate locked as it seems to be a tourist attraction in Kville

Re: 68 project

I did receive a good number of parts this week though, most of the new stuff to rebuild my vent wings came in and my fuel line and double flaring tool came in also

Re: 68 project

That is true. Larry has seen my undocumented ride. Didn't think it was worthy. Needs some work but I am proud of it. Waited a long time to get it. Thanks for mentioning it and posting pics. Had a great time going on the parts run.
