Well I gotta be honest. I painted the wheels twice. The first time I used my PLUS gun to clear them. I left the 1.4 tip in and didnt even dial the needle back. Lets just say I was humbled after looking at the 500 runs and sags. Serves me right for rushing and being a jackass. I had to sand and scuff the outside down and reshoot them, but the insides looked really nice. This time I just changed the cap on my iwata from the purple to the silver left the 1.3 and cranked the needled way in and took my time. They came out flawless, no sags nothing. Lesson learned!

The fiberglass stuff is for the 79 camaro I'm working on.

Dub,

That is the nicest car dolley I have ever seen.


I have been doing some metal work. I joined Metalmeet.com and attended my first meet a couple week ago (a very good experience). The tool box is for one of my Ford tractors. I am just about ready to do a blend on that rear panel and get my car put back together for summer :cool:new%20rear%20panel2[1].jpg

Very nice work there Bud.

Just put a fire stick in my hand and run!!! lol I'm a fabricating fool ;) I ware out a 4 1/2" grinder in 6 months. I burnt up 180 lbs of rod this year. so far.

Wish i had pics of the last one. Built it from scratch. Everything rusts so bad here I have more work than i can physically do. But hell it almost pays the bills lol
