    Roof Skin Replacement....

    We are not doing anything to it until late Spring, but sometimes I just think ahead. It's what I do. Never being a body man, but having enough amateur skill to be dangerous, answer me this with your thoughts.... The Dart Sport we let my 14 year old son bring home needs a roof. We expected that...

    So I went with the ever so cheap Rustoleum paint job on the Dakota this morning. Added a urethane hardener. Turned out pretty ok for a rookie. Slight orange peel here and there. Looks good at 5 feet and way good at 10 feet, so I accomplished goal. Should I clear coat it or not? Do I wet...

    Patch panel welding - body guys

    Not a pro by any means .... that being said, on my 05 Ram bed sides, am I better off doing them as a rectangle as the patch comes, should I cut the corners at approximately 45* and not have them come to a right angle? Does it matter? And yes, I have the new outer wheelhouse as well.

    Stripe removal....

Don't know what he did different to the Shelby 5 years ago, but at the end of last year, it started to get a zillion little bumps that look like tiny pimples all over the roof, hood, bed rails and even the plastic light...

    Going for a 20 footer

    After doing the patch panels on Jake's 2002 Ram, we decided to make our 1st attempt at painting our 1st vehicle. Promised the wife when we're done next weekend, she won't be able to tell we had a paint booth. Jake has been picking away at the rest of the body for the last couple of weeks...

    Rocker Moulding Clip Removal

    We didn;t want to push the center buttons all the way thru to roll around the inside of the rockers for ever on Jake's 65, so we came up with this idea.... drill a pilot hole, run a srew in about a 1/4 inch, and pull the button out with a pair of pliers (or as my 4 yr old said - use squeeze to...

    65 B'cuda 1/4's

    Being new to the world of early A body-dom... As mentioned in the welcome board, I'm dragging my 14 yr old son's 65 home tomorrow evening. I know it needs a full left 1/4, and if patches are avail I can save the right side. I also know nobody makes repro full 1/4's. That being said, where can...
