Good work Dave, also the car looks awesome!
Well we're Green and we're Gold, and we play better when it's cold. All us Cheese heads have our favorite superstar. We love Brett Favre.

Thanks guys, second sealer is now drying, I guess it probably wasn't necessary to seal it twice but it's been a long project and I don't want to risk any fine cross hatch sanding marks showing through from all the blocking. Color is mixed and in the gun, waiting for the sealer to flash off and it's time to return that 44 yr old car to it's original color.
Something clever here.

Hot damn, can't wait for pics of her all painted up. You rock, Dave!

ND - I've mentioned before how much I've enjoyed these threads, but it bears repeating. I've been checking the thread every few hours to see how you're doing!!
I do actually HAVE a life, but the work you've been doing is really interesting and I'm living vicariously through you! Thanks for sharing it with us!

one coat of clear to go. I believe I'd actually enjoy doing something like that if I had the skills and a place to do it. There's not too many things out there that I find personally satisfying. Tool & Die does,...that's why I do it. Car restoration and stone masonry are two things that fall under the "I wish I could do that" category,..but there's only so many hours in the day.

Very Nice Dave. I love that color. So where does the Camp Chickenbuck stencil go? On the doors or rear panels? BTW - congrats on the wagon ride. It gets easier day by day.
They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

That thing is looking so cool. Hey, is that a coyote flipping the bird in pic 5?
