Thanks. Paint and body work has some flaws but it was a trade out so I can't complain much. I only plan to keep it til the orange truck is done

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

I saw your other thread about the vent windows. From what others have told me and what I've read here, both windows can be refurbed in an hour or less even if its your first time. Someone here did a write up on it with pictures a year or two back, he said it took him longer to put create the post with pictures than to do the actual work.

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

Fitting the moldings. What a PITA! Plan to shoot paint tonight.

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

Cool! I didn't know you were going back w/the molding. Two tone?

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

Yes! The fender was just a test to see how I was gonna like the gloss since it was originally gonna be satin orange. He's the finished tailgate.

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

Too cool, love the two tone!

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

Thanks

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

Great color choice.....

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

I'm very please with how it's turned out so far. Still have to do the hood.

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

Wow, looks great. Gotta tell you, I spent several hours working on the vent windows this weekend - you made a good decision to outsource that job...

Re: 80 Scottsdale build
 

Well...... I haven't yet. Maybe I will now that you made that comment.
