cheese wagon

not a pickup but i painted this little 3/4 ton gmc grummond this week. turned out kinda cool, it's for a specialty cheeze shop. it's like all 3/4 ton truck stuff in an aluminum box. i never want to sand around another rivet again.

Re: cheese wagon

Very nice. Base-coat/Clear-coat or enamel?
I can't remember, are those like the Divco's where you can stand up and drive them?

Re: cheese wagon

Nice work, I'd like to see some photos of that one when it's all done with the signs on the side.

Re: cheese wagon

it's just single stage nason, hit it in 3 goes, painted the roof in the hoist room with scaffold (ladders boards, tires and milk crates, sketchy as hell) and then fit it in the paint bay by taking the rims off the back and using 2 floor jacks under the diff and the rear drums almost scraping and bare rims on the front. sprayed the yellow next and then the rest of the green. Hard as heck getting enough on the flats to flow decent but not so much as it doesn't run off the rivets.

Re: cheese wagon

Cool, you can see the bare rims in the first pic. Looks great but your scaffolding is crazy, LOL. You wouldn't get my unbalanced butt up on that rig with a paint gun in my hand....Nice work!
