Finally ....got 69 painted !!!

After 3 years and 500 hours of my life I finally got my 69 painted and pre fitted. I still have to disassemble and reinstall drive train ( if I don't sell it ). It has been a very fun project , but so darn expensive. Now that it looks so good I hate to use the old moulding and interior , but new is gonna cost a lot. Just wanted to show off my project to people who appreciate old Chevy trucks ...thanks to all who give me advice over the past . jyd

Re: Finally ....got 69 painted !!!

Truck is looking great. If you got it that good on the body, you can probably clean up the trim and get it looking good for that truck. Excellent work!

Re: Finally ....got 69 painted !!!

Your're not stealing my pictures are you ??? Just kidding, your trucks looking great !!! What color or paint code is that ??? I had a hell of a time getting the exact color on mine, had to do a computer match to get it exact. My paint code was 514, but 514 was redder than the original - thanks.

I painted the truck with the PPG paint. I used the Omni line throughout. 2K primer , base coat paint and clear . The color code for the Signal Red was 514 . The first paint they mixed was too orange looking , but since the truck had never been painted before and the inside of the cab was still in pretty good shape the NAPA store was able to tint the paint to the buffed glove box door. I was very pleased with the match . I believe it is very close to OEM. Again , thank you "all" very much for the kind words, as there is a lot of awesome trucks on this site........ Joe

Re: Finally ....got 69 painted !!!

How much paint did you use? Painted everything? inside cab? inside bed? and How much paint was left? Sure looks good. Have you buffed it out yet?

Your'e trim looks fine! Get her put back together and drive her for a little bit. You'll decide to keep her. Nice work, Jeff.
