Like the clean look of the cowl. Nice work. We are going through a cold and snowy patch here in upstate n.y. Steve

I like it! Hope you don’t mind, but I’m copying that clean cowl look. Keep up the progress, it’s looking great!

Re: 57 Truck build

Man ,looks real nice John. came out great. quick question,where you live does it have a lot of humidity? reason Iam asking if so you might want to get the cab in epoxy primer then you can put filler over that..... filler will soak up humidity and if over bare metal it may give you issues down the line( especially if its goin to be sometime before you paint) . Dont mean to intrude and I know others have difference of opinion,but its just cheap insurance , hate to see you go through hard work you been doing then to have issues.

I was planning on doing it first but the weather wouldn’t let me. I talked to my painter friend and he told me it was ok to put it on in some places. Hopefully I can get the epoxy on soon.
