Great looking job your doing! Lots os satisfaction in doing it yourself.
Thanks greendart, and I know what has been done and how it was done.
Looking good.
Did this thing have a vinyl top originally?
Mine has the same bondo under the top, and is also painted better than most I have seen under the vinyl.
This was a vinyl top car but was repainted and the top left off. It then rusted through at the roof seams.
I am fixing with patch panels but my angle grinder died and I am still looking for a deal on one.
I will be going back to a vinyl top.
How the heck did I miss this build and great work you have been doing homecloned :tongue9::tongue9:
You are doing some great repair and the tach location is very nice.
Know I will go back and get caught up :thumbrig: :wave:
This site is so big I can't keep up :cheers:.
I havn't posted on it much because most of the projects are half done.:-D
I think early on you took notice.
That mini tach came out better then I planed but I am scoring a rally dash console with the 150mph speedo and tach.:-D I will save it for the GTX.
Creed is dun and ran off to practice music8)
I must say you have me itching to get some metal work dun on Victoria homecloned :cheers:
You sure have been doing some great patch work and that will have to wait till spring but the other detail work will be fun for me this winter.
Your reconditioning on the console sure is a great work of art and creativity =P~
The new color is going to be great on your your Dart
Know I know where your avatar came from:-D
I hope you be smart and let your c6 heal good and move smoothly
Repetition and weed eaters are a no no, So hang in there and give it time.
Some time's we just have to learn to do things differently and make your work area higher if you can and just do a little at a time so you don't aggravate it.
You sure make this look easy :-D Good job bud :cheers:
Thanks bud. 90 percent of the metal work is done.
I can never finish a project step all the way through(ADD), so I bounce from area to area on the car. But it does keep my interest that way and gives me a chance to relook at areas with a fresh eye and make it better. 8)
I was feeling a little better yesterday and did some body work.......big mistake. I feel twice as bad today. Back to the couch and computer.
I actually have the front end painted and partially wet sanded. I am excited about the color.
Oh yeah, I was wearing my tens unit while doing some work(I know,big no..no), well one of the patches comes of down the back of my shirt. I did not realize the shock that thing puts out when not hooked to your body. I got jolted a few times buy the time I figured it out and fished it out of my pocket to it turn off. :-D
Like Mike said how did I miss this thread,but then I realized it started before I got here.Nice work,home,I like the color you chose.Your a handy lil monkey to have around.Lotsa good skills I see.Keep up the good work,bud.8)
Thanks bud. You know the thing I love to do most is monkey around.:munky2::-D LOL.
I restored high end bicycles back in the 80s-90s and developed a little nack for detail, that and years of scratch building models.
Well the wife made me put away the 1/24 scale models and work on this.
Cant blame her.:-D
