  • Here are the pics of the fresh primed T-Bird

    Here they are and the Bird is almost done. it needs a little more touch ups and get the door jambs and trunk but otherwise it is done. A total of 20 hrs of work went into this car in two and a half days. I give thanks to my friends dad for the huge help and his son for doing a lot of work as well. I have a vid coming soon.

    enjoy









    The trunk was the hardest part but the bondo filled in the high and low spots.



    can you guess where the two patches are in the left rear bottom quarter panel.

          I am going to paint it the original Corinthean white, which is a cream white which is a darker white that will show a lot of gloss and deep reflection.

                      Thanks for the compliments guys, just a regular bondo filler nothing special, it is made by 3M I think and hardener also made by 3M, not sure i can find out for you if you want. all the sand paper and bondo and air masks we used were all made by 3M.

                              Thanks Aaron. I will keep you posted. I took a full weekend of work off to do this and it was so worth it. I am trying to get it done before my old high school car show in one month.
