Sandblast`

Time to get to work on my wheels....will probably wish I had bought a new set before I get these stripped and ready to paint. Oh well, at least the temps here in West TN are in the 40's today which will make being covered up easier to bear. Once I get wheels painted and tires remounted then headers go on and it gets to go for a front end alignment. Plans for January are to pull heads and have them worked (or use 390 set), put in cam and Offenhauser intake and then make sure the body is like I want it before warm weather arrives for new paint.

Pretty slick finish, will have to leave heater on all night I guess, this was a single stage paint I picked up on ebay, sure did lay good in cold weather. Only able to get shop temp up to 68 today

Nice color choice for the wheels..... White and black and soooo overdone. Gonna shoot the back sides of the wheels? Otherwise it'll be like showing butt crack.
