Well no updates quite picture worthy. Last weekend I got the bottom of the cab sealed off in Epoxy primer. Had to small a fluid tip in the hvlp so it was rather a fight trying to get the primer to spray somewhat decent, but this stuff somehow has a self-leveling additive. haha Once dry it was pretty smooth, little color sanding and it would be perfect. I also got the inside of the roof in primer after a good 3 hours of sanding to get that metal super smooth. This time with a larger tip I was still fighting the gun, but it came out almost perfect for epoxy so I am happy. Plus 2k urethane filler primer will be put on top of that so I will worry about color sanding then.

Today more parts from Summit Racing should be here.

And tomorrow my black single stage paint should be here so I can lay some paint this weekend as I have the the weekend off. Later guyz.

I hate it when the paint peels off with the tape. Keep the updates coming.

siggyfreud · 10-17-2016, 04:42 PM

Looks good! I always found painting fins with a brush was quicker in the long-run than masking/spraying. Just have to get the paint thing enough to self-level so as not to leave brush strokes.

It was heart breaking. haha Spent almost an hour taping it up. First coat laid on nicely and after more coats kept going on the tape popped open along the fins, let it sit for awhile and started peeling tape...and some paint came with it....at that point it was start all over again. haha So this time I will roughen up between the fins a bit for better adhesion.

Pending on how the weather(and paycheck) is, should be getting some paint for the under dash and working on getting that knocked out this weekend. Once that is done the cab can sit on the rolling cart like it's supposed to and I will start prepping the inside floor panel for primer and paint. All weather pending at this point. Parts will be on order soon. Hope your weekend was a good one gents.

Hey guys! Well, It struck me that 2 years ago Today my 292 was completed at the machine shop. The part that struck me is I still haven't started it! haha Man has 2 years gone by fast!
Due to my camera being gone I haven't gotten pictures yet, but last weekend I spent a ton of time with the truck and got the underneath of the dash primed and painted. Went with a stainless steel color. Also did a temporary prime on the back interior half of the cab as it's to cold to prime with the gun, but I was on a sanding spree. lol Cab is pretty much ready to be put on the cart right side up again so I can start working on the floor boards. Anyhow, camera should be back soon. Will post some photos and will be getting some parts in as well. Later gents.
