So what you guys think?

i ended up keeping the 2" blocks and ordering a new ubolt. the reason why i kept the blocks is because i moved the bags over the axle. i felt my bags were too deflated when i had them on the trailing arm, which is why i wanted to get smaller blocks...

Re: Project 67 DRGNWGN - 67 Burban!!

lol..man i been slackin lately!

havent done crap since i got the rims on it...i need to get back on it! im not sure if i should clean up the sub frame for paint or just get back to my original plan and start the body work...i never had plans to paint anything on the frame, so it would be another setback!

so what you guys think?
The Burb is looking good! Wheels are cool.
I think if you are completely aired out or laying frame (which it looks like) it shouldnt drop any more when the engine goes in, because it is already solid, no more to go.
Keep up the good work.

Re: Project 67 DRGNWGN - 67 Burban!!

i would like to try to rework my orginal hinges to make them work. but i just dont see how i could..i still need to trim the inners a little bit more, and its already super close to the lower bolt hole, unless i cut it off...has anyone tried that?

im sanding down my interior now since i cant figure out whether to do my own body work or let someone else do it. since i lost my heater, and am not using the heater control panel (for now), is everyone welding them up or leaving the dummy control panel in there to fill the gap?

i just about have the dash sanded up and will prob move to the back and start sanding later this week..

Re: Project 67 DRGNWGN - 67 Burban!!

dash in primer and wetsanded...



paint im shooting...massey ferguson red from tsc (single stage)



and heres how it turned out...

after the first coat...


24 hours dry time..





i really like how it turned out. i mixed it with mineral spirits this time to thin it out instead of regular paint thinner. i think it made a big difference in how it flowed out from the gun, and it also didnt water down the color like the black did.

workin on laying some primer on the rest of the interior..hopefully this weekend! what you guys think?

Re: Project 67 DRGNWGN - 67 Burban!!

Kev it looks great, that black satin and red will look outstanding! What color do you plan on doing the seats? All red or black and red mix?

thanks guys, i was hoping to be driving it by this summer...but i guess well see!

tried to get some pics of the inteior but it was really tough, the lighting in my garage isnt the best and i really dont want to roll it out just yet. i think the paint turned out pretty good, i just have to fix a small overspray that got into the corner of my dash. probably too small to see once everything is together, but i know its there.

maybe i can wetsand 1500..?

Re: Project 67 DRGNWGN - 67 Burban!!





ill get some pics up of the overspray part later....

i still need tubs, and to make some kick panel covers with speakers, and also panels in the back that cover the sides, which is why i didnt spray there. thats a whole job by itself...what you guys think?

Re: Project 67 DRGNWGN - 67 Burban!!

Of course you will have to buff it out after the sanding but it'll come right out. The inside looks great, I know the excitement is killin ya!
