My First Resto-Mod (Guidance Appreciated)

Looks like you have a really nice car to start with. I am curious though why you would go through all the trouble of sandblasting/rust repair only to inadequately protect your work by putting some low end paint on your baby If nothing else, get some good epoxy primer (black maybe) to get you started after you strip the paint. you can use filler right over the top of it, and seal it up with the same primer when you are done doing bodywork.

I just orders epoxy and hi fill (and clear coat) from Southern Polyurethanes: http://www.southernpolyurethanes.com/

Take a read through their "perfect paint job"

I am not saying you have to do it this way, but it is educational.

I have not used their products yet (plenty other on the forum have) , but feel free to check out my build thread in a couple weeks, as I will be priming this weekend.

I did something similar to POR15 for my floor pan/trunk/undercarriage/suspension called rustbullet. It is avail in aluminum and black, so I did aluminum inside, and black on the suspension. There are some pics on my site www.1967barracuda.shutterfly.com

Looking forward to watching your build.
