Well tomarow i will be priming my ford, i just wanted to show some quick mock up pictures to see what everyone thinks, i am going with flat black paint for now, but here are the pictrues.

Lead Sleds FTW! Looks really nice man, good job!

Thanks my hotrods are my babys, i am buying my bag brackets, C-noch, some steel, bags then tanks, switches, and so on i need my front suspension parts but thats 2200 so i gotta wait for now

My quads are my babies. Well currently its just quad and baby. I'm digging around for another project since my current one is almost done.

Looking good man. My roommate is into old cars. I wish i had the time, money, skills, and tools to do that kind of stuff.

I thought you had a classic truck?

My question is, after watching many Overhauling shows, is even though you think its smooth, how do you know for sure?
Because they paint the cars and it looks flawless.
I just don't see how you can't see imperfections with all the beating, sanding,welding, bondo they use. I'd be afraid to paint and see spots were'nt smoooth.

The trick to finding the low spots is you prime it then spray flat black spray paint. Then you block sand the black spray paint off. Where you have dark spots those are your low spots. Then you fill em with some filler spray the black again and block sand again. You repeat the process until all the low spots are gone.

Can't see the pics at work but I could picture it in flat black with some red pinstripping with red powdercoated stealies and baby moons.

I believe shows like overhaulin skip that step because it is time consuming but it's well worth it in the end.

Yep, also known as a "guide coat".
You lightly dust with a bomb/rattle can of black.
A very useful method for sanding primer.

yep, they also made a guide coat which is like a black baby pouder that you wipe over everything, then block, i only do a few stripes, in a X pattern, then that highlights your low spots and depending on the size of the spot alot of them block out of the primer, and steve, it all takes time, alot is hard to get on the 1st,2nd 3rd,4th, and in my case many more times, im not a body guy, yes i can do it but i dont like to because it takes me so much longer, im a painter,


and yes steve i do have trucks, i have

1-1951 Ford car
2-1954 Chevy Trucks ones a 3/4 ton and one is a 1/2 ton

then my motorcycle, but im waiting with that until i get some projects finished

looking good, cant wait to see it done!

time to fill some holes and make that sucker slick!...Lookin good boss

no im leaven all the trim on, becuase you dont see many with trim, and everyone has chopped tops so that was a no go, im going a traditional look

section it

dont have the money/ambition to do that lol
