Re: My new project 86 Silverado
i block sanded the epoxy primer on the cab the other day, did it with 80 grit to scuff it up good, then used 180 on it.
shot a shoddy coat of 2K primer on it... cheap gun I have isn't spraying wet enough, so i'm gonna get another one and re-prime the 2K... pic updates after i re-sand/shoot the primer

Re: My new project 86 Silverado
talked to my engine builder Monday, they have the long block done, all but the pushrods, they had to order a different length for the new cam.
hopefully they can throw the tins on it in the next few days and get it done, can't wait to get it installed!
