Great looking work!!!
Yes it was. Looking forward to seeing it back in it's former glory with white vinyl top.
To me it really is a talent that some are better at than others. As an amateur body hack myself, my question to the OP who obviously knows what he is doing is this.Nice work. I can't do bodywork to save my life. To me it is an art form, you either have it or you don't.
Damn fine!
What process did you use to get it back to shiny metal?
Luckily, you don't really need to put anything on the bare metal here in AZ. I used some Eastwood Fast Etch to get rid of any small bits of rust in pitted areas.I was going to ask as well, I thought you sandblasted, very nice work. Did you put any type of metal prep on after you got it down to bear metal.
I remember my Dad would use some mynric acid sometimes on some cleaned up rust areas,
Thanks but I can't take credit for the paint. That's in the hands of others now. Should be done late next week.you do some great work, Tom! im envious!!
