I also used Eastwood seam sealer inside my car, also their paint and prep or whatever it's called. They actually have a cool video showing how to use them together to get a really flat and clean result, but you're right, it'll destroy it if you reapply the solvent to it again later. I switched to 3M for my underbody and preferred it.
Bodywork is coming together nice |
sorry you had to redo the seam sealer. The blocking turned out great though. That wet panel looks fantastic.

I used the 3M self leveling drip check sealer for the drip rail. At least it went smooth :) Quote:

Summer's over, back to work
Moving along, getting back to the fuel tank mounting, and also made a fuel pump/sending unit access panel.
I originally wasn't going to make this large of a hole, but decided it would be best to do it like this after all. Just easier to work with flat surfaces. https://i.imgur.com/x6bbFLe.jpg This is what you do when you don't have a roller to form sheet metal. Improvise..hahaha https://i.imgur.com/AOI4njl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/8eH9yZy.jpg https://i.imgur.com/rOrhma2.jpg https://i.imgur.com/IUIgmAE.jpg https://i.imgur.com/YgKpyS8.jpg Lots of test fitting and trial and error https://i.imgur.com/2cfnTHH.jpg https://i.imgur.com/vsMzWAJ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/By6acVl.jpg https://i.imgur.com/koqZyBL.jpg https://i.imgur.com/zLrabBI.jpg https://i.imgur.com/wMDYK1C.jpg |
Ooops
Made the hole in the wrong spot and had to redo it. Didn't allow for the angle of the neck. :wacko:

Fuel Pump and Sending Unit Access Panel
Decided to make a fuel pump/sending unit access panel. Found one online for $175 bucks. This cost me $20 and a couple of hours.
1" x 1/4" flat bar. Opening is approx 12" x 7" https://i.imgur.com/FLz2cMg.jpg https://i.imgur.com/spgDTlQ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/oKT0WdB.jpg https://i.imgur.com/I173ajA.jpg https://i.imgur.com/krxVjHH.jpg https://i.imgur.com/A2XDpEg.jpg https://i.imgur.com/LNGvApC.jpg https://i.imgur.com/JZo7lrG.jpg https://i.imgur.com/9XrMu3v.jpg https://i.imgur.com/sQqDBbW.jpg https://i.imgur.com/FrZfaix.jpg https://i.imgur.com/t8CF9vF.jpg |
Under Body Detailing
Time to work on the underbody. I painted the frame rails today. Tomorrow I'll mask off the frame rails and do the floors. I'll do them with Rustoleum bed liner, then I will paint it body color.

Very nice work you're doing there.

Thank you. Just doing what I can, with what I have and my limited skills. I just don't trust people to do my work. I figure I can buy the tools I need, and screw it up a couple of time for what some of these shops charge to do shoddy work. :lol: |
