Re: 198Plus build

Went ahead and blasted my hood again today, just had a bad feeling about what was under the primer. This is what (another shop) did for me many years ago, nice work.........I'm so glad I have my own shop now

I will have to cut one of mine out.
Somehow, it just came loose and feel to the bottom of the pillar.

Re: 198Plus build

Nice

Do you still need brake lines for your truck. I have a front set of SS from the MC to just under the passenger seat.

Good luck with that, 198.
Better to take care of the rust and stripped threads now then after it's painted. Don't forget to skim some filler where you cut the hinge plate out. I'll be on the lookout for a fresh coat of paint.

Maybe I can get a credit towards the wheels when you find time to bring them over when you pick up your bumper. :bog:

Re: 198Plus build

I decided not to use the a post drip rails, couldn't decide whether or not to split the doors open to close the gaps between door and a post.........We went ahead and just added a rod to them.
