Re: Crusty Rusty Leaky Squeaky 67 Step

Blocked out the first round of 2K primer on the firewall and dash and applied a second coat, so it's on to the back of the cab. Needed to see some color, so I tuned up the detail gun and shot the black on the steering wheel. It was originally a mahogany wheel, but Kathy never liked it. Plus, it had a lot of chips an dings, so I set it aside and bought an inexpensive one for the silver truck. I always liked the configuration of this one, though. It's a Signature Series wheel from Grant, but is no longer available. The depth of the dish is way less than you can get in that style now so it sits closer to the dash. Great for belly clearance. Anyway, I've been spot filling the dings and primering / sanding on it a little at a time for the last few months. It finally took shape and I sprayed some Jet Black single stage urethane on it. Looks good enough for who it's for, as my late uncle would say.
