Well,took the truck to the paint shop this afternoon. Now sit back and wait, but still have the door panels, back wall panel to do while it’s gone, Then carpet, dash, seat covers, and anything else.

Are you painting the plastic bits? Does painting hold up? Primer first?

(I was born in Rockingham. We lived in Hamlet. My dad worked with the railroad. He also raced at Rockingham along with an uncle. Long time ago!)

Well, at least you know where Rockingham is! Yes I am using the SEMS plastic prep and color coat. Used it on the 70 Challenger I have and very satisfied. Thanks for looking. David.
