Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
Please fellers, please don't sit on the roof of your trucks, cause 20 years later someone is going to have to replace your butt prints with some bondo

Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
I was real happy with the primer. It was by martins paint and it was a general all purpose primer. The guy at Napa said that its what most of the local auto body shops ordered for primer. It was a good high build primer. It sanded easy too. I was also able to spray it with NO RUNS!!!

Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
And finally, what I had been waiting for for years and years. I PAINTED THE SUM BEECH! The color is medium metallic blue. I know I posted these in another thread, but I'm so happy to see her painted. I can finally WASH it when it gets dirty. ENJOY!!! (oh yeah, all of this was done (the bondo, primer, paint) in a 3 1/2 day period). I'm pooped.

Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
I went back to columbia this weekend for some more punishment, err, ah, I mean to work on the truck The old girl had been sitting under a tree for a few weeks so the first thing I did was give her a bath. This was the FIRST TIME I've ever been able to wash my truck without the primer turning the sponge black

Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
I thought I'd get some "bling" installed on the truck so I put the new mirrors and door handles on along with the "old" door locks. I'm glad I swapped out the "sport" mirrors (71-72 style) for the original style mirrors. They look really good on the truck and they poke well above the bottom of the window.

Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
Last weekend I got the rear fenders stripped and cleaned up. They're pretty banged up, but completely rust free. The driver's side is going to have a decent coat of "icing" on it, but the passenger side is pretty straight! They got treated to a good wire-wheeling and rust encapsulator.

Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
I worked outside friday and saturday (It was about 98 each day ) and got the bedsides stripped of the old paint and undercoating (stuff I put on about 9 years ago.) I didn't spend too much time on the inside of the bed. It's going to be coated with some roll on truck liner stuff. This truck is FAR from a showtruck I just want a nice driver.

Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
It was nice friday and saturday, but holy smokes did it start raining at about 12:30PM Sunday. Had the pull the old girl in the garage to finish the bed. By the way, it has rained like crazy here since yesterday and doesn't show signs of stopping. I had to sit in my truck for almost 20 minutes last night when I got home it was comming down so hard! And then, after it stoped, I had to walk through about 3" of water flowing across the parking lot!

Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
The rain forced me to finish up in the garage and due to the crappy weather I was not able to put the "real" primer on the bed. I rust encapsulated underneath the bed rails as much as I could get (after it was all scuffed and hand sanded down) and I rust encapsulated the wheel well area. The spray cans were whipped out and the bare metal areas were covered.

Re: Not another build thread! Progress on my '67
Oh, the joys of bondo
I think I got a bad batch of bondo too??? NO matter how much hardener I added it was still a dull pink color??? Never had this happen before. I still dried within 30 minutes, but the sufrace was always "gummy" and was ruining my sanding disks! I'm still nowhere near done with these damn fenders

The weather cleared up for a few minutes, just long enough to get a few shots and put her in the shed before the storms started again.
