Father, Son, and Grand Father project. 1963 Valiant
We have also been working on cleaning the wheel wells in preparation for primer and paint.
We are painting the wheelwells body color (red).
We never intended to paint them, but, jason was in the wheelwell knocking off some of the loose undercoating so that we could shoot some fresh black in there, when he showed me shiny silver factory paint hiding underneath.
So he scraped some more, and some more. Than grabbed the de scaler and went to town. And between him and grandpa they got it to the point you see above.
Just a little more cleaning and it should be ready for primer on Tuesday and paint on Wednesday. Time permitting.
Than hopefully Sunday we can reinstall the K member and steering, suspension and brakes. It's going to look awesome! Jason is super excited at how well all the individual parts came out finish wise, and can't wait to see it all come together. Thanks for reading. Eric and Jason.
