The filler door is an oval flush mount from Hagan Hot Rod.
I bought the tko500 a few years ago for a good deal, so I'm sticking with it.
Thanks,

Got a link and how does it work (how do you open it)?

It has a magnetic catch. When you push it it pops the door out and then you push it closed and it holds it there. They're like what's used on the glass doors for entertainment centers.

Not much to look at, but the body and the rest of the sheet metal is ready for final sand and color. We're working on rigging up a booth and then start spraying.

The wheelwells, interior, and trunk are cut in and undercoated. Maybe there will be color on the body next week.

If you can read through the second layer of plastic this is a Binks paint booth.

Southern Polyurethanes SPI Red Base. It has a few coats of SPI Universal Clear on it now, but I haven't gotten a good picture yet.

It's been cleared, sanded, cleared again and now it's getting ready to be buffed. Someday it might be back in one piece.

I'm a big fan of Southern Polyurethanes products I used there 2 part Epoxy primer on the Duster and hear great things about thier clear. Looking good !!!

 

[fenderman33]

This car has their epoxy over the bare steel, their 2k over that, their sealer, base, and clear. Maybe they should pay me instead...?

The head work and blue printing was done by Glenn Smith Racing and myself.

Oh no!! Not Glenn Smith. That guy doesn't know what he is doing! Hahahaha! Just kidding. He just did the 5 angle on my 2.4 dohc head that I swapped into my Shadow. He also did some work on my 5.2 magnum heads that are on my truck.
