Bronco SS 4 years and counting!

[Revelation]

Was hoping mother nature would make a fool out of the weather man. No painting today....

 

[bax]

You can do it. Just not outside.

 

[Revelation]

I know I could do it, but getting the temp up and stable in the shop is an issue, temps are going to stay in the mid 40's here today, Got to much work in so far to spray the jambs and lips to have something happen and have to re-spray, I may shoot it tomorrow afternoon, that way I can stay on track to set the quarters on Monday, and if that goes well I could set the tub on the chassis Monday afternoon, but realistically that will happen Tuesday.

 

[Revelation]

Mother nature kicked the weatherman's A$$, got to almost 70 today and I painted the door jambs, fender lips and the Quarter panels, went ahead and sprayed the quarters to cut in for the flares.
This was the first time I have had a spray gun in my hand in over 10 years, That along with using paint I had never sprayed it turned out OK, not perfect, but the areas that I was spraying will be covered by the door inserts, and flares. the rest of the quarters will be blocked and sprayed with the rest of the Bronco.
Long time coming to get to this point.

that's a bright blue. it's gonna look sharp.

 

[Revelation]

It is from Matrix, Hi Lite Blue Pearl.

 

[bax]

Oh I like that blue. It looks good. What happened? you run out of paint?;D

 

[Revelation]

Nope, just getting the jambs ready for the inserts, and the upper quarters ready for the quarters. I still have enough to complete the job.

 

[FRANKO289]

WOW LOOKS GOOD ... cant wait to see it in person in NOV, !!!

 

[Revelation]

Nov.? Well we are talking about putting together a run in the Osceola National Forest over the summer, guess I need to start a thread to gauge interest.

Looks super nice keep up the fine work. Scott

 

[Heus33]

Color looks GREAT!

 

[Revelation]

After stopping by the shop today I can say that the pictures do not do the color justice. Tomorrow the quarters go on, then Tuesday tub goes on my frame, at least that is the plan.

 

[DonsBolt]

Looks great
do you have enough extra paint to do the frame blue

The frame you see is just a spare we have to get the tub done, I already have the chassis sitting waiting on the tub.

 

[Revelation]

Headed to install the quarter panels, a bonus would be the install goes easy, and the tub goes on my chassis today.
Reality, quarters today, set on chassis tomorrow

get off the computer and out to the shop.

 

[Revelation]

get off the computer and out to the shop.

Waiting on 40 degrees, 37 right now. Cost's to much to turn on the heater, money I need for parts!

 

[bax]

Put on a jacket, and some long pants. Dam it man it's going to hit 70 today and rain tomorrow. Today is your paint day. Or did you paint all you need at this point.

 

[Revelation]

Got everything done that needed done, just the areas that are gonna get covered, the door jambs for the inserts, and the overlapping areas for the quarter install. All I am doing today is installing the quarters, still have some fitting to do. If they are on by 2-3 I am going to go ahead and pull the tub off the rotisserie and set it on my chassis. Got a line on a set of 34 swampers, going to check them out Wednesday.
