Yup.. stock color. deck lid in 2K soon…. I blocked out fenders this morning.. I wasn’t quite happy with them yesterday.. 8-(
Proud and Stubborn 👍🏻
Sanded the hood with 80 grit yesterday.
Then stripped the front of the deck lid and sanded the back of it with 80 grit before moving to 180 grit for a few spots. Forgot to take a picture of the deck lid! 🤦♂️I been trying to kick ass on this one.. I would like to have the shell painted and in the clean shop before I head to Moab for the wedding next weekend.
Front fenders next, then hood, then paint!!!! 😎 Blue… I do not recall the right name or L##’s
This could be the last 68 I ever paint… 😎

Sanded door jams and around the engine bay seals and vents with 320 grit. Helped Dad spray 2K primer on the front fenders as well.
Started early today. Body worked the hood. Light housing had a ding as well.
All parts body worked and primed. Ready to start sanding for paint.
We will build it if it comes.

Riley, JJ, and I sanded, and sanded, and sanded, then masked it all up.
Looked great after 2 coats!!
But 3 for Dale looks AWEEEEESOME!!!
Riley’s still sanding…blocking out fenders with 320 for tomorrow’s paint sessions.

Got lucky again!!!!!!!!!! That was three coats single stage, no sealer…. blocked out with 320 by hand!
