Primered Hood and fender



Im pretty excited. I got all the body work done on my hood and passenger fender. I was able to get a nice coat of etch primer followed by one coat of filler primer. I will definately be block sanding and applying additional coats of filler primer to get it nice and smooth. First I will complete the front end completely up to a first coat of filler primer. You can see I did not align the body parts yet, I just put them back on to please my neighbors.

Oh yeah, by the way... This would not have been completed today if it werent for the excellent help of my homie Ludguin "the Penguin" Trejo, aka SPINBAD. Thanks man! I owe you one. Power steering pump...??? HAHA. I gotta thank his wife for letting him stay at my house all day.

Heres latest pic...
Incase you didnt notice I will mention that I have filled the hood and fender weld seams so it can have a smoother finish. I put arrows to the weld seams that were filled along with a closeup.

Almost forgot, my nice friends at Monroe hooked me up with a full set of shocks. Gotta love them lifetime warranties!

The fronts are in and I also finished some undercoating on my fenders. Pics of that will come after I complete the first stage of primer on the front end.
