Is there any chance you can post a few close ups of the epoxy on some of the more complex areas of the body?

I’ll see if we can add a few more later today…

Thanks - the bigger/higher resolution the better. I'd like to show your work to a few of the guys in the shop so they can get an idea of the care/attention that you guys put into bodies once you get them. I hope it'll inspire them to continue to elevate their craft.

I‘ll see if the guys “in the booth” can take some nice detailed shots. Anything in particular you want to see??

Nope, anything works! Don't go out of your way though - don't need to add extra work.

I’m taking the top, doors and ambi doors for mock up as soon as I get the “word” from the shop. Everything’s in pretty good shape for the most part. As I recall, the bottom of the ambi doors had a questionable area. I thought the body in the raw aluminum looked noteworthy. It’s amazing how just adding primer gives it life. Guys at the shop did great work and the rotisserie made getting into those tight spots easier.

I’ll see if I can coax another bird hunt out of @Jdc1 on my way north..
