Re: Lurker OrrieG Progress Pics

Painted the wheels and fenders and grill parts that will be hidden when assembled. When paint is nice and hard will post a pic with the caps. Tried to mask and paint the crudy caps, now I know why guys just strip and polish them. I had to strip about 4 coats of paint off the wheels, clean up scratches and rust, get dings and straightens the sides, etch prime, prime, sand, sealer, base and clear. All together I have about 3 hours in per wheel!
