Re: My 64 Project
Another update: got the cab painted in two tone. Decided I wanted to have some fun with the roof though, so I put a little more time into that portion of things....

Re: My 64 Project
I can honestly say that I probably have as much, or more, time in just this roof panel than all the rest of the paint work on this truck so far. Also for those who didnt know, rattle can pearl does not lay out smooth at all.

Re: My 64 Project
Final outcome was far and away better than I could have expected. Not perfect by any means, but for never having done this before I'm very happy with it.

Re: My 64 Project
A few more progress updates: got the doors painted and hung. Also got the trim back on. Then started in on the bedsides. Had a buddy that does sheet metal French in my 59 caddy tail lights.

Re: My 64 Project
Once he got done with the tail lights, I figured it still needed more, so I went ahead and swapped out the wheel arches for a set off of a 61 bel air.

Re: My 64 Project
This truck has been kicking my ass today, so instead of fighting it more, I'll make another progress post. Got the bumper finally hung, but will need to brace the brackets due to a little more play than I would prefer. Also got the tail lights installed. Need to get them wired in now. Not sure what the deal is with the pictures. Anyone know if there's a way to rotate them once attached?
