Baby steps. I’ve got my Land Cruiser out of the shop, so I’m hoping to finish painting this month.
Thanks, Rodster. I haven't made much progress the last month. I broke down and started wet sanding the fenders. The dust nubs and orange peel came out pretty easily. I'm testing how much I want...
Thanks, Mike. Exactly what I needed!
Thank you, Mike.
I realized I failed to take a picture of the B-pillar on my car before I primed and painted it. I'm going to mask and paint it gray soon, and I'm hoping someone can get me a picture of an original...
So, I started this as a father/son project. My son and his wife moved here for six months as he finished school on-line, and last weekend he left for the Navy (I was Air Force for 22 years, but I've...

I got it for $35 with a lifetime warranty, so it...

The brakes on my 86 had gotten soft, and as a result I hadn't driven it in a few years (life...). So I started the brake rebuild, and now it's apart for paint...mission creep (more on that in a...
