Re: 68 project
It's been awhile, a long while since i've posting any updates! I thought I'd share a few. I changed my mind and decided to bag it. I got all the body work done and primed. These pics it is in the high build primer.

Re: 68 project
Thanks alot. It started as a beater build, but it just kept growing. Thats why the frame, motor, trans, etc aren't painted. Had to draw a line somewhere. I've got two other projects I want to work on also, (55 buick and another 68 SWB laying rocker). Those were the last pics I had on a camera. I've got alot on my phone, but the quality isn't that great. This is what it looks like today. It's been long blocked down twice and is in final prime. Waiting on 400 wet, then I'll get it painted. Goin back silver and white, with original trim. Goin with that satin look though. I'll flaten my clear so it'll still have the uv protection. Try really hard to have it done before summer is over. With work and family it's kinda hard finding the time to work on it. Which I'm sure most of y'all know what i'm talking about.
