66belair Posted June 1, 2014 Posted June 1, 2014 Such beautiful work! Your attention to detail is amazing.
Jeremy Jon Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 Thanks Larry, Ron, Carl & Mike! yes, I'm anxious to be completed also, but ran into some unexpected trouble, so I've been busy rebuilding the body & modifications, then repaint entirely Had some problems with the clear coat, and decided easiest route was to strip the body, and repaint.... ...the primer and bodywork part line shading went well, after which moved on to first coat of white paint... ...then disaster! placed into the dehydrator, bought new, which read low, but was in fact hotter than that, and bodywork began to get soft ...fortunately I had the second body, so began immediately the same body modifications, as this project already over due! test fit shows the body high at front end, radiator beam needs to be further modified door hinged, and inner framework done to match door panel nose needs some further attention also, with gaps filled & front edge of hood needing extension for proper appearance + fitment
fitforbattle Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 What a bummer good thing you had another body but still... I'd be so mad I would put the build away for a couple of years.

Same EDIT: What did you use for stripping the paint? I've been looking for a good one that won't burn my hands off. I found Simple Green works, but it kind of doesn't just peel off, I see that yours just came off of the hood. Thanks, Glenn Edited July 5, 2014 by DynoMight
rustybill1960 Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Jermey . . . . .I . . . "WOW!" Detailing . . . "WOW!" Thank You for sharing Looking forward to more Later Russ
Mack_Mechanic Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Sorry about the bad luck You also have patience of a saint,if that happened to me I probably would have thrown a massive temper tantrum and thrown the whole lot in a box and not touched it again for a few years.
DanielG Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I want to know how you managed to get the interior out of your car on to the garage floor and photograph it to pass it off as a model?
hgbben Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I want to know how you managed to get the interior out of your car on to the garage floor and photograph it to pass it off as a model? Right
Dominik Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 What a bummer good thing you had another body but still... I'd be so mad I would put the build away for a couple of years. same here. I think, i kicked it in the trash, if it were mine...respekt to your motivation Jeremy!
Jeremy Jon Posted July 21, 2014 Author Posted July 21, 2014 Thanks guys, it has indeed been frustrating, but progress is being made, and this thing will be finished, or die trying!! LOL In the body paint/decal/polish/assembly stages now, had to acquire more decals (thanks Ben!), but back well underway again!
