Finish Up

Last small defects filled with spot putty.

I actually moved the tape about 1/4″ back on the hood. That’s so I wouldn’t have a grey primer line on the hood when the tape is removed. I sanded the extra hood space so the paint should stick OK. Three coats of Dupli-color satin black.

Before….

Body work is not my thing so less than perfect, but a whole lot better than it was!

Wheels torqued and ready for the road. It’s getting its battery topped up for the start of the season. The radio’s pre-sets use up a bit of juice so I top up the battery a couple of times over the winter with a float charger.

The Chevy will come down off the quick jack once I have the rocker trim in place with new screws and bolts. Then I can re-install the rear window trim and it will be ready for the road too.

Next: parts for the Chevy are in the mail so hopefully I can get the winter work completed soon. The first nice driving days are just around the corner!
