Let me know. I'll hook you up with the cruzr head discount. When are we going to have a roundhouse with the local guys? Just kick the tires and bull**** like that. I thought we were going to gather at your spread. See ya soon.

Bodywork has begun

Finally got some body work started. Starting with the bad spots. Rear drivers quarter panel and corner. Got a budy with skills helping me out on this. I should have more progress since I got someone helping. Carry on.

Getting SMOOOOOTHer

I love it when I make progress. That much closer to the LIGHT

 

[landcruisnman]

Luvn the Progress!!!!!!

Great to get things finished. Rear Drivers Side done!!

 

[landcruisnman]

Done and Trimmed up 2 to 2-1/2 inches

Looking good. Look what the other side looks like before bodywork. Looks like the PO bolted a spare tank bracket right to the sheet metal

Rear Sill Done

Got the rear Sill done. It had all kinds of rust pores exposed after blasting. You can see the nasty corner that awaits

What kind of body filler are you using? Looks like you can work it really well.

 

[landcruisnman]

We've been using Evercoat Z-grip and Metal Glaze for the filler. Works really well.

 

[landcruisnman]

Other side done in back..... Cool

Having someone help is helping for sure

 

[landcruisnman]

Nice work......

He's really doing a great job. Need to pick a color pretty soon.;p

 

[lowtideride]

Following the thread for a while, and just noticed the save Trestles sticker.... Too Cool...

Keep up the good work. Pic a color yet?

 

[landcruisnman]

My Wife and kids are pushing me to paint it a bright blue of some sort. Need some samples to see what might look good. Gotta keep'em happy. I'll just be happy driving it again.
Gotta keep the momentum going..........
