Keep it up Buddy . Good work

 

[JackA]

Alittle bit everyday........cleaning, painting, chasing threads in front end pieces. Head light housings need some work. Buckets are soaking in rust remover in the red bucket....lol

 

[JackA]

Sanded, cleaned and primed.......headlight housing parts.

 

[JackA]

These pieces are the outer surround for the front turn signal lamps. I painted the outside sliver which is normally body color. This is to hopefully improve there effectiveness. The back side is black.

Here's the hood hinge springs. I stretched them out for better painting.....genius or crazy.....

 

[JackA]

Ordered a boat load of parts for this pony. I have the first week of February off and plan to get a ton done during that time. I am looking forward to painting this and getting onto final assembly.

 

[JackA]

[JackA]

Started masking stuff. Also, gonna add this Mach 1 style hood scoop.

 

[JackA]

More of the same.....plus sorting out front end parts

 

[JackA]

Picked up the correct horns and another wheel to use as the spare. It's a 14 and kind of rough, but I'll work some magic and make it good.

 

[JackA]

Mach 1 Super Duty ? Just kidding.....cleaning up the scoop today.

 

[JackA]

I bought some new items to improve my paint jobs. Nothing special just some Harbor Freight stuff. Got a new regulator for both the compressor side and one for the gun. Got another spray gun too. Seems to preform better now.

Here's some of the parts in the blue.

Also came up with a good tip.....I used some packing tape to cover the gauge at the gun. This way....no overspray gets on the lens.

Painted the trunk jam area before the sun went down......
