I agree with Ken & Dave; you guys could do it! I did some flake on motorcycles back in the '70's when we were using lacquer. It was labor intensive, but not overly difficult. I've never tried it with...

Hi Don. Chrysler had a color called Inca Gold that they used on PT Cruisers back in 2002 -03 (they may have used it on other vehicles in other years, too). It almost looks like a candy color. Have...

So what happens to the Dodge truck now? I have a thought (Just what you need - another project). Drop that Dodge body onto an older Toyota pickup frame. Adjustable torsion bars up front, 4-cylinder...

Poor Dan. I know his frustration level has to be at the "explode" level.:mad::whacked: I'm sure he has probably had thoughts about where he is now and where he would have been if he had kept the...

I suppose golf is alright for people with the right temperament. I've tried it, though, and I'm told it's supposed to be relaxing..? My ass! Golf would be a short cut to a heart attack or a stroke...

Back to bare steel..??!!:eek::eek::confused: The frame? Holy crap; after all you went through with the special filler, etc?:( Bring us up to date...

Don, when I was driving stock cars a few years back, we were running two tracks which necessitated changing the chunk in our Ford 9-inch sometimes twice a week. We never used a gasket; we just used...

I know photos don't always show all the little details, but that frame looks perfect already. It's going to be beautiful.:3dSMILE: Is Dan sure he wants to cover up all that work with a...

OK... What is Tiger Drylac? Is that some kind of filler that is heat resistant so it can withstand the baking process of powder coating?:confused:

Hooray! Progress... Keep us posted.**):D

If I lived closer, I would shoot it for him...;) Did you look at that website I posted? They have all kinds of colors including metallics and pearls that are flat! Good prices, too. You might want...

Points well taken! I tend to forget what a paint job costs these days; I do all my own paint work, so, for me, it's just whatever the materials cost (even that's not cheap now days)...:o

Golly, I hate to see him paint this thing flat or satin black.:HMMM: 98% of all the rat rods in America must be flat or satin black. It was cool at first, but it's getting to be so overdone... This...

Aha! Further proof that great minds think alike!:rolleyes: :LOL: :LOL: In my coupe and in my son's sedan, I put a tube across from side to side and mounted everything to it. The main difference is,...
