Wheel Tubs

http://www.summitracing.com/search/P...pe/Wheel-Tubs/

http://www.jegs.com/c/Chassis-Steeri...10085/10002/-1

1Bad62Pro/Street · 08-23-2011, 10:27 PM

Well looks like we will not be using the tubs from Jegs or Summit.
We will have to make our own out of T-304 Stainless Steel. The T-304 is more expensive because it is made to be more durable and it is a higher quality of stainless steel and is used in equipment that requires more strength and durability like in cars and machines.
I keep looking at this bed below:
Polished Stainless Steel strips separated by black walnut stringers and stainless steel carriage bolts.

You actually use gas to thin the rustoleum?
Do you use a primer under it?
Kim

No primer.
Well we use a little bit of gas.
The gasoline is being used as a catalyst.
Gasoline is a petroleum bi-product which works well with the Oil Based Rust-Oleum.
It really works well!

1Bad62Pro/Street · 08-27-2011, 04:23 PM

Me and Pops side by side!

1Bad62Pro/Street · 08-27-2011, 09:42 PM

Fitting the fenders back on.
Going to drop her one more inch in the back.
I wish I can drop her like this!
If I only had $100 grand.

1Bad62Pro/Street · 08-29-2011, 10:01 PM

Almost there!
Still looking for candidates to paint my truck.

1bad, nice progress! Also, as far as painters go, efabman here on the board is in the Charlotte area, he does flawless body work, I gather his painting is just the same.

Actually I went to a crusin in Stanley, NC and an old boy had literal hundreds of these. He had a stand up selling all makes and model cas/trucks. He had (6) '62's prints for $3 Dollars each. I had only 6 bucks on me just got a burger, coke and fries.
So I just bought the best looking ones. The guy and his wife say they go around to crusins and car shows locally so I hope to see him again! I want to buy the rest! He didn't have a card, and I didn't get his number. (Large crowd around.) If I see him again I will get his contact number and post it on here for you guys. He had a lot of '60-'66 GMC and Chevy truck prints... Even big truck and BB V6 prints.
