Two topics in one night! I have been working on the body of my
pull-handle 64-65 and am getting close to actually seeing results. The
car is stripped. I currently have front and rear ends under the car but
they are going to go and I am going to flip my bod and prep the bottom
(There is a web page writen by a guy who shows plans on a DIY gig). I
have the car mostly stripped of paint and an Eastwood leading kit on the
way (hopefully I will use no bondo). I now have a bare unibody.
Questions:
I want to paint/protect the areas not usually exposed (ex. underbody,
wheel wells, fire wall, wheel arches. What is the best way to do this?
I want to paint the car with hood, fenders, trunk lid etc. on but need
to protect the rest.
I have the car to bare metal. What is the best way of priming it? I
bought a new hood and It has a black high build primer. Can this be
duplicated at home? By a shop?
Any used body solder? Tricks? Suggestions?
