1966 Valiant Signet Convertible Resto
Well it's been a while since I last posted any updates. I've been busy with other things in life lately but back track now. I had a few things I had to take care of on the body which weren't that bad. I ended up welding the tail panel seams so there would no longer be a gap there. It's all smooth now. Originally, I used filler but it was bound to crack eventually. This was a much better solution.
The shell got it's final block sanding a while back but I needed a good window to put a final sealer coat of epoxy on then another quick wetsand before basecoat. The results look fantastic to me so far. I have not had it in the sunlight yet being as this is just the basecoat so far. I'll let this set overnight then clearcoat :toothy10:
If the reflection in the basecoat is any indication....this thing is going to be freaking awesome. 2 coats of PPG Midnight Metallic Blue (aka EE-1 Dark Blue Poly)
Next pics will be the clearcoat in the sunlight if there are no booboos in the basecoat. Fingers crossed.
