[Bomp]

That dash throws back one heck of a reflection. Crisp

Glad your mini is all recharged. She looks like she is ready to take on the world.

So I had so much fun painting the dash....I redid it again
Truth be told j had some dirt fly out of the hair dryer while drying the paint. This waterborne paint requires air movement to dry the paint. Being it is super humid out the hot hair dryer works good except when you don't double check it first for dust. So I denibbed the base and cleared it. When I went back the next day to check it out there were all kinda of sand scrathes that normally I would have rebased but ran out of paint figured I could get away with it but.....Nope. I've brushing A$$ on my project so I figured I'd get it over with and reshoot it. Glad I did....came out like a piece of glass and super deep started wets sanding and buffing and can't help but smile...hard work eventually pays off!!

Cheers!

Time for a bigger exhaust fan

Thanks man. Not a huge fan of wetsanding and buffing either but like you said it's definitely worth it in the end especially when your shooting in a tiny one car garage surprisingly in the area and conditions I have been painting in I got very little dust so little scuff and buff wasn't bad.

Havent posted in a while. mosf of the iside of the cab is done. feel like everyghing takes me forever damn ocd. have to herculiner my floor. Still want to pull the doors and jam those up but need to do so cleaning and make si more room.Been watching so many people firing up their trucks and I've got the itch to start focusing on that so I can move the truck under its own power if my driveway didnt have a slight incline I'd be good but this thing is heavy to push by myself uphill haven't done much besides take creeps advice and pull the air cleaner,valve covers and exhaust manifolds and have them blasted so I can paint em up. I'm thinking of pulling the motor and trans and doing all the gaskets and doing a proper paint and detail job on them. Plus I'd like to add some new parts to it while its out. Not sure how many have been following along with my build. The motor and trans I'm using are from a 76 buick regal its a buick 350 and turbo trans only 10k miles since both have been rebuilt and runs really good. Cam and shift kit already installed. I know this is a bit of an abnormal motor to use but i like to be a little different and it was free. It actually fits perfectly in this truck using the engine and trans crossmember and mount no firewall issues and the distributor is on the front too. So for no I'm just going with it till I can build a nice monster motor.

Before you Herculine, look into Monstaliner. I used it on the floor of my Jeep and it is holding up great. It also doesn't have rubber chunks in it like Herculiner and has better UV protection.

Hey, sorry I've been real busy. Took a trip to San Fran with my girl to the Outside Lands music festival and just been catching up at work.

Here is the best picture I have.


It's held up great for about 3 years now.

I've been doing little things on the truck but nothing "update worthy". I'll hit it hard next week. Need to get it to a rolling chassis before winter so I can get the cab inside.

[flips72]

interior is beautiful, great work, man that's gotta be some of the slickest paint ever.

[Jmorales3181]

Figured I'd try out a test pic too and see if it works
