In the process of painting a trail rig. Updated 10/13/09

I'm painting a 77 for another member on here. Basically wanting a nice hunting truck. If I knew who painted it before I'd like to kick them in the @$$. Truck is coming along pretty good now. Most of the paint on the hood blew off with an air blower. Looks like they hardly did any prep work(obviously).

Looks good so far, it might go from hunting rig to show vehicle before your done.

looks good to me .... what color did you decide on ??? camo ?? lol

 

[66ALRIDE]

Going silver with the top sprayed in black bedliner. Hope to get some paint on it tomorrow.

Cool man, can't wait to see the fresh paint on it

My son's hood had the same problem. Looked like it was replaced at some time and they painted right over the E-coat without any prep. Peeled off like a shedding snake.

Have I ever mentioned that I HATE sanding Bronco grilles?

 

[lonesouth]

What are you charging for the prep/paint?

 

[66ALRIDE]

Not enough.........lol ;D

 

[66ALRIDE]

Well it's sprayed now. Just have to get it back together and ready for the woods.

[JGbronc]

Nice! I like it!

 

[lonesouth]

i never should have read this thread! Very nice work!

BTW, my 77 looks identical to the one on your youtube.

 

[66ALRIDE]

Actually he wants the grille silver with black headlight rings.

The 77 on youtube we're going to paint grabber blue probably. We're also starting a frame off on a 74. Got all the parts in, and should start on in next week or 2.

 

[lonesouth]

dang, you guys sound busy! Is this work or play?

 

[66ALRIDE]

Play right now, but it's looking like if it picks up it may be work. Plus lonesouth here's a link to the progress on the 77 http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=145644
