Lookin good Kegan, super solid!

Got most of the filler on and blocked then the first coat of primer down. Passenger side turned out a little better in my eyes but nothing more blocking won't fix.

 

[Kegan B]

Got most of it in primer now.

Got all the final body work (upper corners of cowl were bashed in for the hood pins) and last coat of primer laid on it today.

Last round of sanding is done, looking like paint Wednesday.

Yeah I always narrow my focus on specific area specific task at hand. Near term achievable goals. Then one goal at a time one after the other. Then one day its like hey car is finally ready for paint.

I'm the same way but I wanted to just start with the bay so I can get the drivetrain and whatnot back in. Then once it's running/driving I can worry about the outside of it.

It's a non Mopar shade (shame on me, I know). Car originally would've been F8 green lol.

Does it count if I took a 10 year break?

 

[Kegan B]

First time in 30+ years it hasn't had a lift off hood, also had to see the color in the sunlight.

 

[Kegan B]

Got it drug back home, now to finish getting the last bit of engine stuff for it.
