Re: My 1965 build thread

I meant to say truck porn without the guilt. But I knew you knew what I meant.
The colors look great together. Are you going to add a pin striping to the color line? It probably won't need it. Nice job Allan.

That's it..........I have that feeling too when I'm out in the shop, like someone is watching. That's an idea. I could set up a web cam so ya'll can watch.

I'm concerned about that as well. I like painting panels the way they are on the car. I hopeing the orange is so bright you can't see difference.

Shannon (sdailey) came over to help hang the doors. Thanks Man



The door gaps look really good on both doors. For some reason the passenger wasn't photogenic.

How would you get it to line up that way? Couldn't you just tape it before drilling?

One reason I haven't drilled yet is because I don't have any mouldings. I'm waiting till I get everything bolted down (fenders, cab, bed) Then do alot of measureing. I can reference off of the bed and cab. I'll then pull a straight line from those then drill. Then rub some paint on the bare metal and mount. It will be pretty much the last thing that I do.

Update on the Orange Miata I painted at the first of the year. He has it all back together for the most part.





Had to repair a little uh oh.





Door and cab with a little natural light (cloudy)on it.
