Any new progress ?

Looking good. Been too long since I have touched mine but question. I have looked into Lizard Skin too, but how does the sequence of this occur? Do you apply Lizard skin and then do a thick undercoat type product over it? Such as Polyurea stuff or similar? Then there is the question of rust proofing... Then there is considerable info on sound deadening I have read on some of the Porsche sites I visit. It is not as simple as applying peel and stick products to contain noise as you might think. Thoughts? I have to get back at it sometime in next Century.

I haven't touched it. Once winter comes back around...enjoying summer right now. Thanks

Just checked your thread for some detail pics of the rear sill.

Did you find time to work on the LV already?

Gmayer, have you gotten to your front drive shaft yet? I have a conflict with the trans pan but it also looks like I may have a conflict with my oil pan as well? I got the low profile pan but it still looks awfully close. What amount of lift do you have on yours?

@gmayer I grew up in Williamsville, where in Buffalo are you at? Gorgeous work BTW! My bud @JackA has a '65, very cool rigs!

G'day Gmayer, I have just read your threat from start to finish. Great work mate. I'm really looking forward to seeing this coming together. Cheers, Ben

Did this rig ever get finished? Definitely some awesome sheet metal skills.

It was going so well. Don’t know exactly what happened, but this amount of work can take awhile.

I found some pics if this truck when I had it in San Diego. I was trying to remember who it was that had it now. Slowly it will be back on the road again. good memories...

@arthog have you done any new LV repro parts?

@arthog have you done any new LV repro parts?

No, I have not. I was looking at doing door hinge seals for 40s but it seems that the early 40/45s are different in that area than later models and the fit will be a problem, and I think it will be a pain to deal with it. My mold for the LV seals has kind of worn out. I made a lot more sets I ever thought were needed. I will be releasing some new LV t-shirt designs in the future though. They very nice and original ideas. Thats about it for now.

Let me know when you do have the designs out. We need some LV love.
