Re: 57 Chevy Wagon - Californa Dreamin'

Thanks!

I put one of the panels in temporarily to see how it looked and I think it works pretty well. Today I'm prepping the panels for epoxy primer and matte silver paint. Weather is a bit cool, but I can spray outside then bring the panels back in to warm up. I have a heat gun setup to force dry them a bit. I'll post pics when I'm finished.

My buddy Chip called me this morning to let me know his dad, Vern, passed away yesterday evening sitting in his easy chair. Vern (or Boppa as many knew him on the forum) was a dyed in the wool truck guy. I talked to him just yesterday and we had plans to go for coffee and sandwiches after the first of the year. Ya never know what the day holds for you when you crawl out of bed. I realize it's a cliche, but we need to treat each day as a gift. I'm going to miss him.
