You like the troubles you are getting from me I am soo proud of both of us!! The Estate is BEAUTIFUL!! We have done a great job on it, together.... Tomorrow we will wet sand it, and put on a gallon of clear or so.... THEN it will stand out! I actually think it will go up on the indoor car show this spring.. I am deepley impressed over the finish!!!
As i was waiting for the primer to dry up on the Estate i was doing a makeover on the shopowners van.. Looks like this now, the lady of the family is very pleased, but not her husband, haha! He thinks the car got to "girly" Hahaha!
Sucking up will always work for us of "the weaker sex" I can never suck up enough to make up for the work she and we have done on this car.. I can tell you that it is a BEAUTY!
Anyone noticing that i paint the car with my left hand on the second pic? I never done this before, but the result may point me to start using my "second hand" for painting.. The right one held up for about half of the hood, then the shoulder got to painful to hold the spraygun up..
High on painkillers, low of the lack of sleep i decided to do some clean work at home.... The door inner panels and headrests for the frontbench! And for those are interested: The link to my facebook album, ya propably wont understand anything written, but welcome to watch the pics!http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=60872&id=651417757&saved#!/profile.php?id=651417757
I actually think that i will run my old reliable 10" grant, black foam wheel.. Even if i like the look, and feel of the GM-truck wheel from -90, something that came with the tilt steering column.. -And for you who is interested: Today i have put the last black coat on, and clearcoted... This makes it about two gallons of paint, two rounds of wet sanding and a shine, and depth in the body that is absolutley senseless! It is one of the best paintjobs i have ever done to a car, and i am so glad that it is on my own ride this time!
Som pics after a few days work... Some details is still missing, but now we, atleast, can see the finishline.... (Sorry for bad quality, the pictures is from my iphone)
I will move the lead mor up front! I dont really care for comfort in a car that looks this good.. The suspension will be demolished up front too.. The springs may look good lying out on the yard? Cuz they have nothing to do on the car.. I have a nick to live up to Thanks for all of the compliments, i really try to not make my cars so (euro?) i really like the US-look on a US-car!! Yeah, Amy, that pickup is kind of mean.. Not much of a truck cuz everything i put on the bed will break cause its so rigid. But its kind of a killer ride..
