  • Well, we finally made it to the "end" of the body work road. At least it was good enough to lay down some high build primer. This car has come along way in a short amount of time and I feel re-charged to get it done!
    Once the primer dried I installed the glass, carpet and a set of low back buckets. After sitting in the drivers seat and making car noises, I was done for the night.
    What do you guys think of the new look of this old gasser?

    Sand it. Spray on some cheap white single paint to keep it from rusting underneath. Put on trim. Done. Great job by the way. You saved it from the crusher.

    One of the few things that stands out in my mind from auto body class 30 years ago is, "chase the wet edge". Primer that will be sanded is not as finicky, but paint is. I always paint bottom to top and chase the wet edge around the car as best as possible. Spray the roof half way, go around to the other side and bring it back toward you, same for good, etc.
