Re: Our '66 Short Fleet Build

Palace makes a better auto parts store than a paint supplier. I go there to get AC Delco parts as it is cheaper through them than from the dealer even with shop discount sometimes. There are some things I can show you that you don't have to buy all the expensive stuff to get a nice job. Sometimes though, it pays to get the good stuff up front. Call me anytime, no sense learning the hard way when I am a phone call or short drive away.

Re: Our '66 Short Fleet Build

thanks guys,
Alan it is on the P sheet...after 7 days you have to scuff it and clean it before coating. Apparently it take 7 days for it to fully harden....so what do you do for a living?? I thought you worked in a paint shop, you just do the repair stuff and someone else paints? sorry, i'm nosey

Like I've said before somewhere along the way, I'm a body and frame guy trying to learn as much as I can about paint. I've painted about 20-25 cars which doesn't make me a painter.

Re: Our '66 Short Fleet Build

I'm liking it Joe. That looks good. Putting the attachment points on the other 3 sides would be great.

I was really hoping that Rokcrln was going to make/sell plans for a 63-66 tip-n-flip. I could make one myself, guess I'm just too lazy to do the legwork.

After going back through and looking at some of your semi recent pics, I think I need to break down and build a cab lift and a real dolly(instead of my wooden one). It would ultimately make my life easier.

*sarcasm/* Thanks Joe! As if I didn't have enough other stuff to do! *sarcasm\*

I look forward to seeing you make progress. Keep up the good work!
