Yesterday I taped the grille and sprayed it semi gloss black let it dry over night and installed today

Rusty Gillis · 03-23-2014, 12:59 PM

I forgot to take a photo of the front bumper showing all the surface rust and dents. The rust and chrome was ground and sanded off and epoxy primed. Had to do a little bodywork

Epoxy primed again

Sanded

Slick Sand

Block sanded with 180 and epoxy primed black so I could see if there were any imperfections

Sanded again and epoxy primed white

Three coats of SPI red next day three coats of clear

Sandblasted bumper bolts before priming and painting

Great looking car...I'm having paint envy atm.

Can't wait to strip ours down this year and clean it up.

That is an Awesome job .....

The rear bumper needs a lot of work

After straighten, welding and a lot of grinding and sanding I sprayed at least 3 coats of SPI epoxy and started the bodywork

After a few times of block sanding and priming I sprayed 3 coats of SPI Red the next day 3 coats of SPI Universal clear
