Drove the wagon to the Bay

Info on the wrap material is on 3m web site, Scotchprint 3m vehicle graphics. Many colors available, and yes, no residue when removed. the woodgrain can be imported and printed on then laminated for UV protection. 3M says warrantee for 5 years in sun and rain

 

Wow, what a difference. Great color choices too. I'm officially lovin' that wagon.

 

Your wagon looks crazy good! How do you get the wrap to conform to the contours without bubbling, wrinkling etc? Do you have to use a heat gun and a special squeegee?

 

Holy car cover Batman!
That is amazing! How much did that cost?

I love the way it looks, but I also dig the way the car looked before with the original "Patina" Like MikeT said, it's a good way to make the car look good, but retain it's originality underneath.

All in all really cool.

 

Thanks guys, Yes, Install's easier with a Heat gun, some guys use a butane torch. But i'll stick with the wagner heat gun and a soft(felt)Bondo spreader(hardcard). Youtube some videos of car wraps and watch time lapse installs from different shops, It's cool to wach the car transform color in minutes

 

That wrapping is just freaking amazing.

 

Found me some vintage Samsonite that matches the wagon.

 

That is so KOOL ! Your wagon looks nice on the inside too. I'd love to have an original with original interior.

 

Put some wide whites on the wagon, wrapped the center of the dash white, And even tried out some of the chrome wrap on the dash cluster cover.

 

A truly amazing wagon, superb job! I wonder if "wrapping" might someday put paint shops out of business, lol.

 

I noticed the Grateful Dead CD in the console ~ perfect music choice for visiting the city by the bay in a pretty car on a gorgeous day.

Awesome stickersmanship

Now that you have the matching luggage, you have to fnd a matching vintage Pepsi cooler in rare white or lite blue...........

 

It looks fantastic! I dig Crager mags but on this car the chrome wheels and wide whites fit it perfectly. The last photo is awesome. Thanks for sharing. I'm glad you are enjoying your beautiful car.

 

How much did it cost for the wrap material? (How much did you order?) How long did it take? And what surface prep did you have to do? I'm seriously considering this for my '58..

 

Cost about $450-$500 in material and about 20-30 hours labor, Removed door handles,mirrors,emblems and tail lights,Washed it with CLR to clear surface rust and cleaned edges real well.
