Glenn_M's Van

[GM]

I am being a little fussy but decided to finish it all. A few spots around the vents and top parts near the roof the paint was bridging. The drivers door had some minor blisters, could only see them in the right light. I was going to just drive it for a while and do it later, but I would rather see it all done.

Here is a  picture of one spots near the roof I broke off.

ok! I understand fully - especially if it's your main fun car!  As much as it would be nice to do our van's paint and body it'll be driven for a while with it's warts and all paint and body - but - we do have another major project on the go. Look forward to meeting you and seeing your van at Orange  :)

I must be missing something here, is that the before shot, before you painted the van, or are you not happy with the paint job and are doing it again? ???

That's a fairly heavy lace for the quarter panel.   ;)

Nah, nothing too scary, just the whole side of the van :o,
those panels look nice and straight for a van Glenn.

Glenn,

As Pedro has said, those panels are super straight, good foundation to begin with

Fingers crossed, it will be very straight when It's finished. Don't want to have to do this again. $$$$$$$$$

You guys make it look so easy.....like...................I'll just duck out to the shed and fix the side of the van while the kettles boiling !!!!..... oh well while I'm here I may as well give it a coat of paint.

Thing of the past now and far from cost effective in the industry, the new ones are great (spot weld and pull the dent in one) and they also heat shrink at the same time.

Looking forward to seeing the finished product Glenn, have enjoyed the pics so far.

Cheers Ben

[GM]

We have paint! Will post more pics soon.
