Josh's 73 Dart Sport - "Fred"

-
Great idea! Are you going to put epoxy on the bare metal and then a few coats of high build? Hopefully, this is an exciting part for Josh. The trend line of the project is making a HUGE turn in the "UP" direction today.

Sounds good. Depending on the mfg of the epoxy, you should have a timeframe where you can spray the 2K primer right over the top of the epoxy without having to sand it. I think the SPI epoxy that I use is like 72 hour recoat w/o sanding.
 
Epoxy is done. Got some fine tuning of bodywork to do, as expected. Definitely showed what we missed, which is what I wanted.

Josh must be a happy kid, in one color will kick the motivation in.
 
So today, we blacked out the front of the radiator support, inside the trunk, underside of the whole car and wheel wells. I shot the front support and then let Josh play with the spray gun for all the rest of it. I did not get any pics of Josh in action, dang it.

Looks like you made a motor headway since I last looked. Are you still going FJ5 with 3/4 vinyl top, with hood and cowl factory black out.
That's a great look
 
If nothing wrong with the stock hood and header they look good with hood blackout and stock scoop.
But I dislike fibreglass too.
