Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop
Just now saw this yes we are okay the bulk of the storm was a bout a 1/2 mile north of my shop it picked up a pair of inner fenders that I had laying out back and blew them upside the house, a couple of small trees down, but other than that we were lucky.

Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop
Just some new pics. We're on to the outside now. I'm probably going to cut and buff it to see if I can bring out some of that natural 'patina'
Naa, the paint is a little checked and has some peel in it. I'm just going to hit it with 2000/2500 wet and some Finesse It on a buffer to see if I can bring it up a little. Just low speed, nothing crazy. I think she will shine up some. Dad has been cleaning on the interior too. It looks a lot better. Someone tried to fix the wrinkling door panels over the years and screwed some metal plate to the bottom edges of the doors (?) I'll fix that, no prob. It just looks kinda bad right now. I am going to pick up some decals for the air cleaner just to finish it off. Did they ever make a drop base for this type air cleaner? Anyway, here she is .. basking in some TN sunshine.
