That wasn't so bad lets do the other side.

I had a good friend who offered to sandblast my subframe for me. I wasn't about to turn that down so I started stripping the frame down.

Again, cutting more metal off of the car. The car started life with a vinyle top which was not so nice to the tulip panel and window channels.

I rolled the car outside for the first time in over a year. Time to rough in some body work and shoot some primer.

The dash looked to be in great condition untill I took the window out. Right under the ribbon seal was more rust:(
http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06924.jpg All cleaned up and welded in. http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06972.jpg |
I decided that I wanted air in this car so the custom made firewall panel had to be cut out.
http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06954.jpg Cutting holes once again:D http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06955.jpg All welded up. http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06960.jpg A little more grinding. http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06963.jpg |
Body work on the smoothed firewall.
http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06965.jpg A little DP90 primer sealer. http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06974.jpg Scuffed down and some high build primer. http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06973.jpg Painted in DCC PPG gloss black. http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06995.jpg http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06994.jpg |
The car is now on the bird spinner. Time to paint the floor.
http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06968.jpg I did not get a chance to get paint sprayed on the floor so I had to scuff it all down again and respray primer. Went out the following day and shot the bottom of the car in gloss black. http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06985.jpg |
This is pretty much where the car is at right now. The whole shell is in primer and has the body work close to just needing high build primer to finish.
http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06996.jpg I have secondskin sound deadner on the floor and roof. http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06986.jpg http://i319.photobucket.com/albums/m...y/DSC06987.jpg |
How did you apply the second skin stuff; shutz gun? How do you like it? I was planning on epoxy priming my Firebird and going over that with Dynamat Xtreme. Would I be better off with this stuff?
Thanks:thumbsup: |
