my 69 build

[jwells1993]

Ya I know I'm planning on flat black for the paint so I'm thinkin that the flat black on the gloss black will look good

I agree. And if you don't detail it, it'll be matt black soon enough!

true

[jwells1993]

so not much of an update still plugging away at it theres not enough time in the day between car work and the girlfriend 

[jwells1993]

also startin to look like a full car again she'll look good once shes in one solid color the glass fenders are kinda being a pain and the door are quite out of wack but they'll work for now plan on getting new doors down the road but not right now

got her in a last coat of primer Saturday i wet sanded and touched up early Sunday morning and did my first coat Sunday afternoon

[jwells1993]

absolutely love how the body lines pop in flat black 

[jwells1993]

so my trim pieces for my quarter one is good the other has screw holes drilled into it to hold it on can i weld this or no its also got a small crack on the bottom where the bumper covers it

[keepat]

Not sure that you can weld that pot metal? But you could countersink the hole on both sides and then fill it with JB Weld.

Good work! 

Damn could've used this for the rear floor boards. I really wasn't advertising it though.

Damn that woulda been nice thanks for the gesture I was contemplating going with and but the 4 spots I had I couldn't justify ripping out the original

Heck no, your right, free metal is free metal. Doesn't matter where. As long as the rust gets cut out
What bed liner did you go with?
