Just finished painting the fenders, hood, cowl, tail gate and rear hatch. One step closer to getting it painted. I decided to paint these parts 1st and wet sand and buff them before spraying the remainder of the body. This way when I pull the body back into the shop I won't have to pull it out again until I get it put back together. Everything went okay except a moth decdided to land on the cowl. I will have to sand it out and reclear the cowl.

I met my personal deadline of having it painted by Labor Day. I know I still have lots to do but at least I'm about to start putting it back together and working in a clean environment. I wet sanded all the piece parts Saturday. Tomorrow I will wet sand the body and start the buffing process. Hopefully all will go well. I was able to sand it with 2000 grit so the buffing should be minimal. Thanks for all the compliments, it helps to keep a guy motivated when people appreciate your work.

Re: Progess Report
looks real nice. Are you painting the upper door frames a different color?
|
Re: Progess Report
No they are the same color. I painted them when I did the door jambs. Looking back I wish I hadn't painted them at that time. Oh well every paint job seems to have it challenges. I did get it all sanded and buffed with the exception of the roof. It is sanded but not buffed. Hopefully I will buff it on Thursday. If the sun comes out I will roll it out and take some pictures outside. I must say its looking much better than it did a few weeks ago.

Started putting the dash back together. New heater core installed, started putting Dyanamat on the floor and firewall. Put the seats back in to drill the mounting holes before finishing the Dynamat and installing the carpet. I pulled it out in the sunshine to try and get some more pictures. Its hard to take pictures that show the metalics in the sun. Attached are few but they don't do it justice.

Re: Progess Report
I see the metallic...looking real nice!!!

Re: Progess Report
Lookin' REAL good!

Re: Progess Report
Thanks for the kudo's. I put the front fenders on today and worked on a few small things. Who knows I may have the hood on before the end of the week.

I drilled all the holes to mount the seats then ran a hot wire and tested the 6 way power adjustments and air blatters. I pulled the seats back out and put sound deadner on the floors, side panels and ceilings. I also put it inside the doors. This should make the ride nice and quiet. My carpet came in today so I laid it in place to let it take shape.

Re: Progess Report
Look"N" good. Love that blue! :metal:

Re: Progess Report
any more progress? I like the dynomat (looks real good) I'm thinking I should have done that with mine.

I have been working some of the little things, I rebuilt the A windows with all new rubber, installed the tail lights, side markers etc. Cleaned all the glass and removed the old window tinting. Went to see my parts man and purchased most everything I need to complete putting it back to together. Installed the mirrors. I decided to stick with the factory mirrors. I know they are not all that sporty but if I ever haul anything it will make a big difference and if they keep me from backing into something... priceless (LOL). Sorry about these pics being sideways. I took them with my phone.
