69datsun510 Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Nice work James, shows just how much work, and how long it takes to do it right!! I wish I had a BBQ setup like yours! :w00t: I have to jack mine up, lay on my back, get it all in my face! :crying: I have been slowly sealing all of my seams on my project too. Sure wish I had a mediablaster!! I just clean it up best I can and apply a rust encapsulator, not quit as good as yours, but better then original. Keep updating us! Quote Link to comment

the510keeper Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Update Cleaning the inside of the hood, what a pain in the ass. However a razor blade took the factory paint to bare metal. See the gap in the hood skin, to hood brace we used some construction adhesive PL400, and clamped everything together and allowed ample time to dry, before paint we will still use sims 2 part seam sealer to fill in the gaps between the skin and bracing Skib stripped the truck lid interior (had been painted before and looked like a cheap job) We didn't want to rely on the prep from the last painters Once stripped it needed complete sanding. Vic stepped in for a moment She is really good at making these That one looks a little on the red side Skib back at it sanding the next step I rebuilt some hinges ready for paint Booth cleaned and ready DP sealer Base Clear no I can't see either 1 Quote Link to comment
