Mj-Styro Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 You know just some days we get in a hurry and really fowl things up! like me!! i should have let the red dry alittle longer before throwing some clear on it.....delima should i just leave it as is and make her alittle rough around the edges after all she is a 48 (LOL) Or should i try again and dip her in the lake for awhile.....problem is tho if i put her in the lake she will get boxed up for awhile...........I am thinking of slightly weathering her a tad around the edges............. Here ya go! you tell me.....
Darrell Gwinn Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I think she deserves another chance That color looks great on it though
mademan Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 weathering would be a kool touch, either way, im sure it will look great. question too, where did you get those wide whites? they look great.

MrObsessive Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I agree with Darrell...................I'm having painting trouble on my '55, but it doesn't need a total dunking. The trouble is around the bodywork I did on the roof..........I REFUSE to give up!! That color does look terrific Mike...........from the pics it doesn't look bad at all, but we're our own worst critics.
Guest Gramps-xrds Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 If you've already cleared it, all you have to do is fine sand it and reclear it, if the paint has had time to dry.
Mj-Styro Posted May 1, 2008 Author Posted May 1, 2008 Update got altitle more done!~ shes heading torwards the finish line .... Down to makin Wheel rings for the back of the tires, Exhaust,some engine work left yet..........bumpers..........not to much anyway, Oh and some detail touch up painting....
OLDERGUY Posted May 1, 2008 Posted May 1, 2008 Looks good. Did you look for the cut markings for chopping the top. Didn't you find it either, and built stock hight. Maybe some 3,4 or1 bar hub caps with the ww's. But it's your's I'm not making a bad comment, just my 2 cts.
