New Paint! We all knew you would doit sooner of later. Her Majesty will be proud of you. Keeping the United Kingdom beautiful! Did you doit yourself? Inquiring minds want to know
Dang, brit! So THAT's why you've been absent from this site! (As long as you've had a good reason, and I'd say that qualifies!) Soooo~ Now I'm thinking maybe I should have used a rattle can to paint my truck if that's the kind of results you actually get. (Or was that by using a roller?) Nice job on the firewall and smoothing the dash! So a 3" dropped front spindle, disc brakes? I know you are sticking with your 6 and your tranny is an original 4 speed? You don't even have it back together, and all I hear is "zoom-zoom"! So I'm color blind, and sometimes pictures don't translate the exact color. To me, it looks like you went with a pearl orange kinda color? Is the wife as happy as you are with it? Good on ya, Neil! I can't wait to see more pictures!
I found a few early pic's. She has Mustang II front end, Camaro rear and a Chevy 350/th350 combo. I found her locally to where i live in England. The seller had replaced the floor,firewall. cowl, both door's etc but had run out of money to finish the project. I have moved the gas tank to the rear, rebuilt the suspension, engine and gearbox. Will start putting her together in the new year and update this thread as i go along. http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u181/bbvette69/52ChevyTruck008.jpg http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u181/bbvette69/52ChevyTruck011.jpg http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u181/bbvette69/52ChevyTruck013.jpg http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u181/bbvette69/52ChevyTruck133.jpg
Paint Approval We mistook you for Brit 50 who favors a shallow rust patina. There is hope for him yet if you live close to Essex drive by and blow the horn.
How dare me!!! How in the H@%K could I have thought that was BRIT50'S TRUCK!?!?!?! Oh~ yah. Because I DIDN'T READ THAT IT SAID BRIT 52 Okay~ So we have brit50, and brit 52. Cool ride, brit 52! ...I wasn't even drinking when I made that mistake~ I can't wait to see what you did to the rest of the truck. It truly says, "Zoom Zoom!"
What color is that? Ive been wanting a color like that for awhile. I want burnt orange but don't know if I can find that. That is a beautiful color!! Cody
Religous Experence? Salvation is still free! There is still hope for his truck although AD salvation takes blood, sweat & tears & large denominations of money as Brit 52 will say a big Amen.
