Re: My 57 Pro Street

Thanks

I always planned on 2 coats and may do 3 just because its the frame. I've read the longer this paint sits the tougher it will get. Kim |

That's it.
I'm going to use a small roller for the second coat to see if it makes it any easier. Kim |

Re: My 57 Pro Street
The Holidays slowed me down quite a bit.
I hope to get the frame put together in the coming weeks. I'm waiting on new ball joints as the ones I had sitting on my shelf for it turned out to be the wrong ones. The place I ordered them from is working on getting me the replacements. Kim |

The rattle can Rustoleum was to delicate and the paint I used on the frame looked terrible on these parts. Here's a couple pics of one of the A-arms. I did all the brackets and 4-link connectors. Kim |
