My 70 Dart
Got somewhere today. The rear is all closed up. Where the holes from the cut out that is. Didn't look too good yesterday. Broke the welds on the piece on the extension piece yesterday. But today.............happy again! I had to use pop rivets and another piece of steel to hold the patch in, but it ain't going to no car shows this year anyway. The outside (q-panel patch) came out real nice. Don't have pics tonight, will do that tomorrow. Also sprayed surfacer on the trunk lid (2 coats) Then sprayed some rust-oleum enamel on top for scratch coat. Not sure if I let the black fully cure because it clogged my paper and clumped up on the trunk. Why did that happen? My only guess is I didn't let it fully cure because I came back about 2 hours later and used 180 grit paper and while it still clogged up, it was no where near as bad. I was able to see I had a LOT of low areas to build up still. LOL, damn hail. Now I know what I have to look forward to on the hood at least! Hope you like my high tech paint booth! Thanks and enjoy. Just two new pics from Monday itself. Gonna take it easy rest of the day.
