It rained tonight so I decided to do a little blocking on the hood to find more low\high spots. Man blocking REALLY brings out the stuff thats just lurking under your nose to ruin a paint job. To my surprise eastwoods epoxy sands pretty nice with 80 grit. So now its time to pick up the stud gun and hammer and make some noise. Pics to come.

jgh64pkup · 06-25-2009, 11:34 AM

cool where did you get the blocks

shortbed70 · 06-25-2009, 11:39 AM

eastwood.com. I am going to buy a longer block also that can bend around contours.

shortbed70 · 06-27-2009, 08:16 PM

Well got some stuff done today got the drivers side door handle shave patch in and started mocking up some stuff to check fit. I also filled about 100 holes where PO used a screw and slide hammer to ATEMPT to pull dent then pulled with studs and skim coated with rage filler. More pics to come tonight.

joe231 · 06-28-2009, 12:26 AM

I feel your pain on the PO attempted fixes

nice progress!!!

shortbed70 · 06-28-2009, 11:29 AM

Few more

shortbed70 · 07-08-2009, 09:21 PM

Here it is today waiting on fenders and more sanding. I still have to strip the roof to bare metal and prime and work before the whole thing gets re epoxied and uro primed. Hope fully by the end of the month.

protrash64 · 07-08-2009, 11:32 PM

Lookin' good s/b70!!! Keep going!! I had to take a day off to save up some energy

.

shortbed70 · 07-09-2009, 10:29 PM

Thats what I was going to do but ended up putting in another 4hrs in the shop and almost have all the dings filled and sanded,front hood seam mudded and drivers door edge I re gapped is ready for a quick sand then grindout the bottom of the drivers door (P.O.) bondo fest and see what I got. So if things go well I will be throwin some primer on the whole truck this weekend. YEA!!! Thanks protrash.

shortbed70 · 07-10-2009, 04:41 PM

I know how yao all like pics so heres the latest. Doesnt look like much has changed but making dust.
You can see in the last pic the extra bondo on the drivers door bottom where the grinder marks are is comming out tomarrow.

joe231 · 07-10-2009, 04:48 PM

**ChiefRocka** · 07-10-2009, 05:51 PM

I agree...look'n good man

shortbed70 · 07-10-2009, 07:27 PM

Thanks guys I'm having a hard time doing this work because its messy and tiring especially in 90% humidity. Its almost done but then I get to sand the uro primer so I'm hopping when its all primed I can take alittle brake. I've put in about 20 hrs this week on it plus 40hr week.

jgh64pkup · 07-10-2009, 08:21 PM
