Re: sorta new

I finally got my car in paint. Is there some trash and a few hairs (human and dog :roll:) inn it - Yup! But, I think it came out pretty good for a first time garage paint job. I finished the cut and buff this weekend.

Re: sorta new

I had to scuff the existing epoxy with 180 and apply to more coats. I then waited 48hrs ad sprayed 4 c...

Re: sorta new

I started working on the front and rear valances. I stripped the front and ran into filler. I found several areas of bad repair attempts (pick, hammer, chisel) damage. As well as, several dents. I hammered and dollied the areas to the best of my ability. I also leaded over the spot weld dimples that...

I decided to de-rust the inside of the ribs on my hood. I snaked a couple of sections of sprinkler hose through the factory holes where I could. I then pumped Rust911 through for about a day. It worked pretty well. After rinsing and drying, I sprayed the inside of the ribs with Eastwoods Inner frame...

Re: sorta new

I drilled the holes for the hood pins a little larger after taking the above image.

Can anyone verify that these holes were 1” from the factory?
