    Hood question..

    No, it's not close and he only has one rough picture. Didn't think they made steel hemi hoods but figured i'd better ask. Don't want to waste my time driving to find a hacked up hood with a sheet metal scoop on it.

    Hood question..

    Was an all steel hood with a steel hemi scoop available? Found a guy selling one off a 1969 Dart saying it was factory original?

    Kirker paint.

    Not sure about the glamour clear, the spi was highly recommended to me so I went with it. Would not use any else at this point. I used valspar primer, urekem paint and reducer and the universal spi clear and reducer. Followed the spi instructions and it looks great. I was on a budget too and...

    New fiberglass hood: Has anyone ever had success with flat black rattle cans?

    Get they harbor freight gun and practice shooting the primer on the top part of the hood (easier to sand your mistakes) and you're going to be sanding it anyways. Or spray the underside first since it won't be as noticeable. $10.00 bucks with a coupon and not bad reviews. harbor freight spray...

    New fiberglass hood: Has anyone ever had success with flat black rattle cans?

    First few years before I was able to paint the car I rattle canned my hood and it wasn't too bad for the most part. When ever needed I just light sanded and sprayed it again. When I did finally paint it I used this. Turned out great and very good price. KemPhlats Hot Rod Black Urethane 1.5 Quart...

    73 dart quarter panel repair questions

    I had about the same rust issues as you. I bought a full panel and cut it to what I needed. Was my first time welding and doing kind of major repair so it was a bit unnerving for me to cut the panel off the car. But wasn’t too bad end the end.

    Summit paint

    I was on a tight budget when I did mine and was willing to take the risk after doing as much research as I could. I used a good primer, went with the coating store paint and southern polyurethane clear. Going on 4 years now and it still looks great with no problems...

    Summit paint

    I used this and am very happy with it. Not sure if the make a single stage in your colors. If your spraying both anyway, why not a two stage? https://shop.thecoatingstore.com/Orangelo-Pearl-Basecoat-Clearcoat-Car-Paint-Kit-PGCO432-BCCKIT.htm?productId=162

    How much Paint

    Yes, seemed good to me but having only painted on car I really don't have a clue on paint quality. I know you will get a lot if people saying you get what you pay for or only use such and such brand. Have heard that UreKem are guys from House of Kolor but don't know that to be true either. I can...

    How much Paint

    My clear came out amazing. Only had to sand out a few bits of dust in it but no need to wet sand, cut and buff it. Mine was my first and only car I ever painted. Was on a tight budget so I went with the UreKem/Spi and have no complaints. Took a body shop class at the local school and went for it.

    How much Paint

    I bought my paint only from these guys 1970 Dodge Charger, Plum Crazy, Paint Code # C7 and used this clear Southern Polyuerthanes, Inc. Used a gallon of paint on my 1968 Dart. No hood, roof or engine bay but I did do inside the trunk, jambs and interior of doors and rear window area. Pretty much...

    Got some color today!!!

    It did mix and flow very good. I was torn between the orange,green and a pearl gold. I got some House of kolor samples of the three and did some test panels. Green and gold didn't look as good painted and the green seems to be a pretty popular factory color look these days. Not that it would...
