Well it's about time something got done on this ol gal. Had the day off today and the weather was sunny and cool so out I went. Did the body work and got the fenders primed in. 3 good coats on each of them. Hoping tomorrow evening after work I can fill prime and put some paint down. :chevy:

Well yesterday evening and into the wee hours of this Sunday morning I got the fenders fill primed, sanded, & painted. Don't have pictures of the finished product yet as I was to tired to take any more but here's what I have for the steps along the way. Fenders were done in 3 base colors like the grill support.

Well Thursday(yesterday) I spent some of the day color sanding and getting these panels painted up. 5 heavy coats of clear on them all so plenty of shine and will pop even better with a cut and buff. Hopefully start on the hood again if the weather holds!

Happy New Year folks! Kicking off the new year by working on the 66! :metal:

Weather was rather warm at 57 degrees for a January which is awfully rare so I took advantage of the day off and got the drive shaft sanded and painted. Did have to warm up the metal first as it wasn't quite warm enough but it came out just fine none the less.

Hope everyone is having a great day. More updates tomorrow. :chevy:

Love the colour and the craftsmanship! Really nice work. What calibre is that in the background laying on the bench? Us Canadians love our guns too!

Really nice work - love the 60-66 trucks too.
