All parts have been dropped off with the Powder coat guy he told me everything should be ready Monday. Fast turn around! B) Well time to get back to body work! Remember the driver side fender I sanded down and it had the large hole on the bottom of it time to fix that!

Well I needed to cut that out and needed some sheet metal. Good thing I keep a junk car sitting around just in case I need something! LOL <_<

Sitting waiting on some filler to cure and sitting under a shade tree I couldn't help to notice ol Pig-Pen was looking mean! Not sure if it's cause the front clip is off be he looked pissed! :ph34r:

You can't rush quality, it doesn't happen overnight. Quality takes time and dedication, but the end results more than pay for it.

The amount of work you get done in a small amount of time amazes me man,

Good shit as always.

When's the 6bt coming to the party?

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Thanks man. It will actually be closer to the first of the year before I do an engine swap. I still have to rebuild the whole front end and do a disk brake conversion on it. My plans are to get the body work done and drive it around for a bit while I still work on it some with the straight six in it. I've still got a boat load of stuff to do to get preped for that jump!

Thank you for saying you are planning on the disk brake swap!! I can't tell you the number of X-frames I worked on over the years with tens of thousands of dollars invested in chrome undercarriage, paint, set-ups, etc still rolling factory drums. Especially with the added weight of wrapped frames and batteries in the trunk that is just straight up dumbass-ery!! Lol.

A lot of them used to say they liked the drums because they looked better chromed...I just wanted to beat some sense into them!

Also got this piece ready to go and in primer. Not really sure what this panel is called! :unknw: It goes on the front and holds the grill and is mostly covered by the bumper.

Getting Door #2 sanded down and it had a few little secrets looks like! :shok: It's not too bad but I will have to weld in a few pinholes as well as it has a long shallow dent down it that I will hammer out most of the way before putting a light coat of filler over it. It won't be bad just hope the other 2 aint hiding anything!

I'm still working to meet my Monday deadline with having all 4 doors ready to go to the painters to be sprayed BUT I got to work 12 Hours Saturday so that put's a HUGE dent in my plans! :aggressive:
