    The frame we used was pretty bad so we split the rails and repaired all the cancer spots. After all new frame sections had been installed we riveted the frame back together and put it on a frame jig to make sure the frame was square before we boxed and built all the cross braces.

  4. Uh huh..what a vision, and the tenacity to stick with it and carry it out. Your efforts are paying off, the finish is in sight. Great job.

    This is after two passes. 57 cadillac Cobalt blue in Lacquer, its a lot of work to do a Lacquer paint job but will be well worth it when its finished.
