I love the way older cars are put together.  Unbolt fenders, unbolt hood, unbolt radiator support... BAM there's the frame!

PPG only costs a few hundred bucks. Not to be mean but it isnt exactly expensive stuff. I use Dupont, works like a charm.

I'll join you on the Fiberglass bandwagon. I'll get pics up of what Im doing at work. A 72 Chevy C10. Floorpans, Rocker Panels, Cab Corners and Doors. You wanna see some places that suck with Fiberglass you just wait.

Looks like you had to use quite a bit of spot putty on that Dr. side rear quarter. Good man edging out fenders haha.

yea but i can get the ppg paint from a friend who will paint my cars for me, hes a family friend, does ok work. The lincoln needs a body job, but the motor inside and underside comes WAY before paint.
