Father, Son, and Grand Father project. 1963 Valiant
Well it was a pretty productive day. We got a lot of "busy" work done.
First we chucked Jason into the trunk with the explicit instructions, "if it has paint on it, scuff it". He got the majority of the trunk scuffed out and ready for primer.
Than we set him to work block sanding, and sanding the filler recently applied to the trim holes we welded up in the rockers.
Than we did some more panel alignment on the trunk lid and tail panel. A little hammer and dolly work on the rear pan also. I think we got it good enough to meet our standards.
And MY job for the day was block sanding…and block sanding…and than more block sanding. Me and Jason both agree that we are sick of sanding. Lol
And than we found a few of the 1 million parking lot dings, (you have to say it with your pinky up to the corner of your mouth like DR Evil) and started the daunting task of filling and blocking those as well.
So, nothing big or exciting to report, but it's progress nonetheless. Slowly but surely getting really close to being in primer. Than guess what…yep, you guessed it…more block sanding. Lol
Thanks for reading. We're going to take some ibuprofen and rest our arms. Lol. Thanks. Eric and Jason.
