Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..

Yeeeeeeee-haaaaaaaaaaw!!!!!
After months of hiccups and setbacks I finally got some color showing....
I used a flattner in this stage to bring the color to a satin finish...
I didn't want the inside cab to be so shiny it hurt your eyes when the sun hits it....hope this works out ok..
Got inside cab and all the jams , under hood,firewall and inside doors painted....now I can get the cab back on the frame and start putting things back on and setting gaps and such....then on to final paint....

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..

Thanks Jesse...
Considering it's a driveway paint job I thought so to....got a run inside cab I'll have to deal with...trying to get paint to go up in the headliner groove and i thought it was ok but when I turned around there it was...I think it'll sand out though...

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..

Got my radio box squared away...fits the roof contour good...test fit the retro sound...right now it's in etching primer..had to do some filler work...Looks similar to the factory one.....Will spray it with high build just to smooth it out a little more...then put some color on it..
1st pic is factory
2nd pic is one I made

I feel your pain. I guess if you want to find something good out of this you could be glad it didn't fall when it was ten feet high up.

Well shoot...at least no one was under it. Were you going to use the truck pan?

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..

Gladly there were no injuries...except my pride ....and no-one was within earshot of me so nobodies ears got hurt either....if the truck pan clears everything the plan was to use it...just looking at it I think it'll clear...
