  17. Thanks all, I do appreciate it, I'd love a '72 Dan, a great body style indeed.
  18. Ted, just my 2 cents, I use Turtle Wax Ice, It's clear so it leaves no white residue to clean out of any gaps or crevices. When I picked this Chevelle up off of Ebay it was dull and dingy looking, after the Ice it shines like new and no white residue lol.
  19. Picked this MotorMax Ranchero up at Wally World for $10. Took it apart BMF'd all the silver painted trim including the tail light bezels, black washed the grille, cut some clear acetate and installed in the wing windows, lowered the front about 2 scale inches for that slight rake and added a set of Pegasus wheels/tires. Then a nice polishing with some Turtle Wax Ice. Nothing major, just a sprucing up. It doesn't look half bad.
  20. I love this body style Steve and you hit a Grand Slam with this build.
  21. Hi Micheal, I use spray on paint stripper, leave it sit for about a half an hour then hose it off, sometimes it may take a couple times to get some stubborn areas. Seams, etc I hit with a fine wire brush, file any mold lines, then I go over the body with some 0000 steel wool, wash it and let it dry overnight. I use regular automotive primer on mine and then paint it. I've not had any issues doing it this way. You just need to make sure all the stripper residue is off the parts and cleaned well or it'll come back to haunt you. I also bake my paint on to make it more durable. I go it at 170 for about an hour. Now that's just my way, I'm sure there are several others. Good luck and show us some pics. Have a great 4th. Geno.
