Re: 56 shop truck build

I love the way it looks in black but I just can't leave it like this. The color top coat will probably be sprayed in 2 weeks time

Re: 56 shop truck build

I find it interesting how different it makes a truck look with a solid color on it. I hope to be spreading some filler later on this week and then move onto the color coat soon after

Re: 56 shop truck build

Oh she's a 50's girl all the way. Her graduation dress is a black tattooed swing style pin up dress. Something that is atypical for graduation, but she's an individual and that's something we have always enforced. ALWAYS be yourself

Re: 56 shop truck build

I was up and in the shop early today to do the final skim coat of filler. It's now been sanded and I'm just waiting for the wax and grease remover to flash off so I can shoot a couple quick coats of the black sealer. Then tomorrow morning, I'm going to shoot the top coat color
