Good job Joe, and you can paint too. What painting setup you got, I know thats not spraycan paint, is it?
Went by the lake today and not a soul on the water that I could see, looked like a few people were fishing under the bridge but that was it.
weather is rough here in atl, that high temp paint you go thtere?!?!?!:D
looks good man..I know you are proud of your work..
Very Nice!
Hey Shep, this is my setup :eek: I know....I would think the same thing that you are now, but its true.....this epoxy is fuel resistant and the hardest paint out of a can :D Only drawback is it takes 5 days to completely cure....No runs, no drips, no errors :)Quote:

Congrats on the restoration, post pics when you do the shroud...The new decals will be something custom or modern... not original...Considering air brush like on choppers...I dont have plans on selling it so i'm gonna make it my own :DQuote:
