X2 It's all fun and games until someone starts pulling 36+ hr work-weekends on projects other than your own, only to work the usual 40 hr work-weekdays while still doing more projects during the week.
Eventually you start to neglect a few small things like oh... i dunno socializing, eating, sleeping.

thanks guys i appreciate it.... [Cool]

i think the thing that gets neglected the most is my house. It needs lots of work but i cant stay out of the garage! Hell the minute i finish the Navigator i got something BIG in store for the tahoe (a full Re-do) [Wink] so i guess its not gonna stop for a good long time. Especially since were gonna flip that '59 Impala afterthat [Razz]

If I had a garage or a bigger shop (at the house) I would probably never see the light of day. But I guess it's best I don't, I would probably look like re-heated death.

What types of body filler were used in the first part and the second part. It never looked pink. Also is the stuff used easier to work with or sand better than cheapo body filler? Looks awesome.

Thanks [Cool]

After i knocked down the big stuff on the fiberglass, i used "kitty hair" for the first filler....the green stuff. It is like bondo sorta but it has fiberglass strands in it so it is much stronger. After knocking that down with a cheese-grater and filling a few more low spots with it as well as more sanding i went ahead and used regular bondo for the finer filling. Thats the pinkish you see in the pic. After sanding that down i did another layer of body filler....the blueish stuff was just me using some blue hardener i had laying around.

Ya its called T.A.P. Plastics - its like my favorite store in the world..

As for the prices, i wouldnt say "dirt cheap".......i never leave without spending a bill, and i dont mean a $1 bill [Razz]


LOL this box may look rough and ugly but its ALREADY a very expensive box....
Anyone else notice the price of resin went up?
