Re: Finally got it painted!

Another new pic... Grill, Lights and bumper... bumper still has an alignment issue only one side gets sucked tight against the front fender for some reason???







Bed is not bolted down, i am aware its crooked, those are not paint chips already its left over wax from the buff job.

Thumbs up Re: Finally got it painted!

Beautiful Paint Job!

I have a couple of questions, if you don't mind...

What did you etch the AL grill surround with before you painted?

And...

What kind of side mirrors are you thinking of?

Ok... maybe another question...

Do you have any paint of that nice paint left to accent the engine and maybe the brake drums with?

(I think it shows proper talent when a person removes the truck bed to paint.) Good job.

Michael

Hey Baged, I think that might be a square body bumper. The paint looks great, very nice color.

Re: Finally got it painted!

I dont quit understand this question sorry...
No clue about any of the painting questions, i had someone who works at a paint shop do all the work...

And...

What kind of side mirrors are you thinking of?
I have just a clip on driver side mirror chrome "rectangle"

Ok... maybe another question...

Do you have any paint of that nice paint left to accent the engine and maybe the brake drums with?

Didn't do the paint myself so nope =( and i have Disk Brakes its a 72...and my engine is already painted black and chrome.

(I think it shows proper talent when a person removes the truck bed to paint.) Good job.

Are you kidding me? The guy told me it was off his 69... one side sucks up really nice "perfect actually" the other side is only about 3/4'' off... I bought brand new bumper brackets from LMC for a 69 and they fit perfect, does not matter???
