This is a job I did for a family member (basically for free, other than materials). It was someone’s back yard butcher job, so I just did what I could to straighten it out and make it shiny. It wasn’t full of rust, but just about everything else that could be wrong with it was. I’ve spent most of my weekends over the last 2 months doing this. Glad to see my part done now…

[img]http://i1312.photobucket.com/albums/t523/shortben84/null_zps97930ec6.jpg[/img]Given what it started out as and the limited time/money this thing came out pretty good. No show car, but it’ll make a nice driver. I used All low VOC Sherwin Williams on it, P27 primer, AWX base, and HPC 21 and 755 clears (depending on the parts).
