KBS coatings paints. Love it. Done 3-4 of these and will never use any thing else again. I bought the kit.

Ruch

I was just going to ask the same question. I will have to order that up, thanks.
Man, and all this time I have been calling you Rich. Sorry Ruch! ;D

I had my stroppe frame blasted and then painted with dupont Imron in semi gloss. I really like they way it turned out. Imron is what they paint semi truck frames with so it should be really durable.

Well chassis is done. Just waiting on the motor and trans. Supposed to be done by the middle of next week. Praying.

Paint is cruising along. Crappy cell phone pics. My Bronco photographer needs some training from my wife. ;D All in all this is the best Bronco porn i have ever had. Cant wait to get this home and start assembly. 2-3 weeks. Summer is coming to Michigan at some point.....I hope.

Painter did a nice job of rolling the front fenders.

I will bring the chassis to him and we will mount the body and fit and mount all panels. He's a good dude. Slow and steady.

Some pics of the paint progress.
