HVLP and I believe this shop uses Dupont brand paints.

Outstanding... Love the color.
We've all learned something here. Thank you Kev.

Wow, wow, wow! Looks great! Congratulations on making another big step!

Paul Kennedy came by the house to take a look at the car. A view of his '29 from the point of view of the '54.

Didn't work too much in the garage yesterday. The heat and humidity was brutal yesterday, and I was sweating like crazy.

But I did discover the new window channels that I had picked up from the Dan Yocum's estate, which were in a 8" long shipping tube that I have had stored up in the rafters for a couple of years. Upon pulling those down, I also discovered that the window's fuzzies were also in that shipping tube. SCORE!! So that saves me almost $100 with shipping.

Looking good, Kevin. I hope to see it in January, maybe earlier.

I like how you composed that picture.

Thanks everyone for the kind words!

Back at it again today, and got all the door and truck latches reinstalled. Also put the truck trim and quarter panel trim on.

Can someone tell me if any of the B-Pillar trim uses tubular push in nut vs a speed clip/nut on the back side? If so, what size?

I believe there are 3 postions of trim on the B-Pillar. Door middle, belt-line, and top of window.

Really impressive. Great job, Kevin!
