Wow that’s a whole lot of great advice from everyone. I’m going to go the route of por15. And that’s only on the basis of having previous success and the fact I plan on doing the same in the trunk area and top coating with the aerosol raptor 2k bed liner. I pulled the other fender today and...
thanks for the input! I should have mentioned that I have actually worked with por15 previously on the floor boards or my car. I actually loved the result. When I did that I used an entire kit with the metal prep, degreaser, etc. are you saying that you just knock off the surface rust and go...
Decided while stripping the paint off of my car that my easiest approach for some spots, and to do some things right, that id pull my fenders. To me they still seem salvageable. There is surface rust on the back side of the fender, which seems more than fair. But my question is for anyone who...
Just saw your post about the balance shipping issue so I won’t bother asking. If you still have a fan shroud I’d like to take one off your hands. if you still do, please pm me PayPal info and the cost.
If you get your hands on the good stuff, be careful with it. It is nasty to say the least. If you are doing small stuff and it has a decent amount of detail I might actually suggest just an angle grinder with a cheap wire cup brush from a harbor freight or something. You can scuff the bare...
Mocking up my new trunk corners (thanks OMS!) and tail light panel. Looking at the old holes in the quarters that fit the through bolts for the rear valance, I notice that the tail light panel is blocking them. So my question is, is my mock up way off? Or is it intended that we drill through...
That car is your's and you build it like it is. If that means you go crazy and resto mod then that's up to you. If you are trying to make the car as bone stock as possible, good on ya. It is your investment. And like someone else said, you won't be getting the time and money invested paid...
I'd say you are doing pretty good in life if you have a 71 fastback used exclusively for firewood storage. I'm most certainly interested in that pair. Anything that isn't completely pitted through is going in the right direction for me. I sent a PM a little earlier.
I know it is a longshot. They don't make repops of the fastback lower trunk corners and as many times as I have tried to beat and distort metal into shape, I am learning that I'm just not that great at it. If anyone has a donor car and wants to make a few bucks back on their investment, I...
I wanna go just so I can tell Foose he took it too far. As a restomod guy I can still draw the line at too much of a good thing. Unfortunately I'm just going to have to hope someone else there says it. Have a good time!
Edelbrock has one that is right at the same price point as well. A lot of purists are going to turn their heads on this one but I'm personally all for it. That is what hot rodding is about.
I am smart enough to know when to admit I lack any knowledge of something. Lol.
That being said, what is the reason behind these not working for a sportsroof? Is it an angle issue? I have been almost dreading getting to the tail panel section of my car for the lack of these corners being...
