I'll be block sanding this stuff on Christmas day, supposed to be 73-74 degrees.

I took advantage of the weather and the day off. Been block sanding all of the pieces, gave them two more coats today. And gave the main body its first two coats. I'll keep at it until the weather shuts me down.

Well Revelle issued a 68 chevelle model. I was up doing snow duty on the boat so I was looking and found it. I bought one before prices go though the roof like the die cast version did.

Wifey and i been talking. Once i get caught up on boat and truck maintenence. This summer I going to start buying and putting interior in the cheve a piece at a time. But it will be moving along again.

Now that she out of college and working we getting caught up on things and the chev is coming back into focus.

FINALLY!

Got some color on the car today. I am in love. (Mulsane Blue) Did the under side of the deck lid, belt line of the drivers door, edges of the hood, trunk gutter and hinges. I did the drivers side door jamb, but it will have to be redone. I missed some water from wet sanding - it made a little mess in a few spots. Getting excited about this old car again.

Some base coat...





Then the clear...





Last one, different lighting. Basically shut off the lights, closed one garage door... and let the flash on my camera phone do the rest

Should be rehanging the drivers door and fender in a few days.
