Fixing up my ole 1100

Primed hood and grill pieces. I 80 gritted the inside and out of all the panels to bare metal. Wire wheeled the rust then straightened any dents with a dolly and hammer and alil bondo after sanding bondo i 180 gritted everything for primer

Update everything is ready for prime except the fiber glass dash piece. I will work on it tomorrow and sand and repair a small crack and hope to have it in the paint booth friday night! Then all my white pieces will be primed and ready for some white paint the following friday!

I mixed 4 of primer and 1 of thinner (reducer) and 1 of valspar hardner to speed up the curing time 3 coats are plenty for me i will have to sand my fiber glass dash piece and prime again because the 1st 3 coats didnt fill the 180 scratches very well so this time i will 400 grit then prime
