That’s the plan!!

Test in a sheet metal panel. Not very amber. A little orange gel should take care of that.

Adam- what type of primer are you using on the car?

Unfortunately it’s a generic primer from WESCO Autobody. I can’t afford something high end. What I do like about it is by deleting/or adding the reducer in the mix, it can be a high-build primer, a surfacing primer or a wet-on-wet sealer. I will be using a nice PPG sealer when I paint, so I think I’ll be ok. I’ll try and get a pic of the primer can later. I need to buy more.

Doesn’t seem like a lot to me for four days worth of work. Today was just priming the driver’s side and clean/organize the shop. I still need to emboss the passenger fender, bodywork the roof, hood and grille shell. Blow it apart to spray the jambs and reassemble for block/paint the outside. Ugh. Not enough hours in the day.

Well, another late start day with some non-essential messing around. Still got the driver’s side ready for primer first thing in the morning. Found more dings and stuff than I thought I had.

Your work never hesitates to put a smile on my face. Glad to see you turning a negative into a well done positive.

No lie, my jaw literally drops with every one of your posts where you share your process to create a custom piece. Such fantastic stuff!

Thanks man. I really enjoy sharing this stuff almost as much as I enjoy building it.

Sometimes I miss this car. One day I’ll get another 245 and do the same thing again. So simple. So much attention.
