Z chopper Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 I think that was James trying to get spudly to think about converting to RHD, as I am sure James has most if not all the required parts to do the conversion. Quote Link to comment

Lol thats all you need... '69s arent stamped for the holes in the firewall like '70+ so you would have to source a new firewall. Quote Link to comment

spudly13 Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 That paint went on so thin.... Theres 3 coats of primer, sanded in between number 2-3 and sanded before paint. And then 5 coats of that shitty paint that went on like water, and then 5 coats of clear. no wetsanding. and I doubt he will so ill never get to see how good it could really look....

rusty12ver Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Is this going to be put together and driven? Or are you planning on painting it? Quote Link to comment
spudly13 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Is this going to be put together and driven? Or are you planning on painting it? the idea since its already stripped is sand it down fix the little bits of rust do the body work and paint it up all nice Quote Link to comment
