Its been a long week. I burned thru the hood while buffing. So i had to giva the burned thru spot a splash of color and recleared the hood. It came out way better the second time with no orange peal but some dirt. I recleared the visor too. That came out too lumpy. The second go round came out perfect, no wetsanding nessary, it is smooth as glass.
Started work on the bed this week. Sandblasted the underside and the out side. Found some rot in the wheel wells. Took the inner wheel wells out to sandblast and properly repair the rot. Started pulling some dents. And since this is a 77 bed going on a 79 i had to take the filler door off the 79 and put on the 77 bed.
Old 79 bed
New 77 bed
