I was hoping I could find someone in the North Los Angeles area ie San Fernando Valley, Burbank and Glendale.
I am about to paint my front lid. I painted my rear lid on a fender stand and did not do a good job on the underside. I know I can get both sides painted hanging the lid on an A-frame paint stand. I would only need it 2 - 3 days at most, I can pick it up in my pick up and return it to you. Thanks in advance. Mike |

My problem with these is always dust and debris from under the iunderside spider frame. But if you paint that first and let it cure you can mask it and then go for the big flat side. |

Hey worn, I had the lid garnet blasted, there were some leftover garnet bits but the reason I bought this lid was the fact that the inner bracing was still connected to the outer skin, and there wasn't much inside the bracing. I spent a lot of time with my original rear lid, adding adheasive between the brace and the skin to add strength and stability to the lid, which was sat on a number of times, this was gonna be a piece of cake. Laying it flat could be easier but not faster, I said I would get around to the inside of the rear lid, but 6 months later, not done. It took me 6 weeks to finish the rear lid, I am on week 3 and holding for the wind. |
