Have owned this car for, well, forever it seems. Last de-rusted and painted in 1992.
Here we go again. Happy to see solid metal just about everywhere. Attached thumbnail(s)

Nice Dave-
This go around should be a breeze then, sort of. Interesting, I have never painted the same car twice. Must be a special car for you!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) Keep posting pictures. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) Oscar |

Progress. Sadly but not unexpectedly the farther we go the more “R” word we find. On what I thought was a pretty solid car, one I have owned for 25+ yrs and kept out of water as much as possible. Better to catch as much as we can find now...

Very cool and nice to see on-going maintenance appears to have paid off as it does not look like much rust. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Dave those bondo areas look like minor cone strikes! They should clean right up! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif)

Closer. Most of the clean up and prep done. Should get to the finish line faster now. Paint is on the way!

I'm curious. What does your paint gun and compressor setup look like? I'd like all the details if you care to share them: paint gun type tip size, brand of paint, brand of compressor,and all the specs. what pressure are you spraying at what's the temperature and humidity if you know it. I'm painting my car and I'm having some issues. I just want to see what you're doing.

I’ll build a motor all day long but the paint/bodywork thing is not for me. |
