Re: Its an addiction
A little update. I need to add a bunch more pictures. Ive been doing a ton of block sanding and as everyone that has done that knows there is a ton of work involved, but not a whole lot to post pics of. I have bought a ton of parts for it, New poly bodymounts, spring bushings, stainless braided brakelines, new gauge cluster, door sills, weatherstripping, and new wiring harness.
I finally deceided on a color Its sunburst orange metallic. Base/clear. My paint guy has some serious shoulder problems and is going in for surgery this week. So he is going to teach me how to paint. I got a little gun time last sunday and did the inner side of the grille, inner fenders, inside of the fenders and the underside of the hood. Im happy with it overall, I did no prep work at all on any of the pieces painted other than wiping the crap off them and wiping them with solvent.
I also filled in a bunch of the firewall holes filled in as well and got some Als Liner and sprayed the bed, tailgate, interior, and firewall with it. I am really happy with how easy it layed out. I had it tinted body color as well. I was getting up under the dash and spilled a little on the driverside floor board, but Im gonna be running carpet and a dynamat knockoff.
