Ok so yesterday got the fenders bolted on, welded repairs on the grill, prepped and primed grill. Today will be busy, going to get the underside of the hood prepped primed and ready for paint.
Not going to forget the camera today.

You know we love pictures, I have been rebuilding one of my rental properties that burnt down so my bronco days are over for a few more weeks.

Backside of the grill completed and ready to go on tomorrow.
First look at the colors I am using together.

And the hood, when the PO had the battery explode the acid pitted the underside, but very usable for sure. what a PIA to get the underside stripped and ready for primer.

Then Paint

Sprayed the black and will be spraying the blue tomorrow, like this,

and decided to pull the dash and re-spray it, the primer was a dark one and the paint was noticeably a different shade. but not any more.

Going to tape off and spray the hood in the morning, then bolt on the grill, and the hood in the afternoon.......
