Re: 1980 El Camino Fresh New Paint!!! TELL ME WHAT U THINK??

OK OK!!!! So all day being messing with elko outside...i took to transmission shop and they fixed the problem, was the linkage hitting on the headers and it wasent letting me put into park. got that fixed...


Stereo still f*cking turning off on me!!! dayum!!! took it back to the homies shop, homie since high school, he went to some college in montana for electric school...but he SUCKS!!! lol that suck im putting my homie on blast...hes kool!!!!
I said f-it and drove around, next thing I hear weird noise where the dash speakers rattling and making poping sound...SO I POPPED THEM!!!....lmao...

I went to best buys and picked up some kenwood speakers for the kicker panels... I started cutting holes to fit and (Bammmmm) sounds much better and clearer!!!!! And I think i found out why the stereo was truing off..the driver side dash speaker was only connected wire to wire, not with clips or u know what i mean....so when i put those two dash wires together the radio turned off!!!!!! (F*CK SHOPS) I had to do it all myself!!!...

Oh and forgot to mention i had 3 medium holes in exhaust pipes from the previous owner......lmao...thats why it was so raspy...sounds better!!!!

sorry for typing so much......I just took care of alot of stuff today...too much to mention.

Saint thinks you playin bruh. Thats real talk right there. We are all over the net. Soon as you say Brown Sug, Tha Runt or Blue Carpet Treatment, peeps know wassup. LOL. Ok. I got some work done..

Hit the whole well with 60-80 grit paper to scuff it up nice...Gotta do this so the epoxy has something to bite onto

After scuffing the holes up and underneath, cleaned with acetone and taped the holes off..

Then mixed the epoxy and hardener and poured it..

Passenger side well is at this point also. I had to use a "cheese grater" to knock this area down smooth. Right tool makes the job easy...Gonna let the epoxy dry til Wed and then start knockin it areas down. Pretty much down hill from here..Next set Imma try a different epoxt. This stuffs too runny... Stay tuned Saint. Wont be long now. Im editing a vid and should have it up later on today..

Awwwwwwwwww yea!!!! Man I cant wait to see them in project elko.....U are really hookin it brah! the progress is getting there slowly but surely.....thanks alot!
 
Re: 1980 El Camino Fresh New Paint!!! TELL ME WHAT U THINK??

Yessir. Its pretty much all downhill from here. The epoxy has dried and Im knockin it all down with the "cheese grater" thing I have. Then a lil filler, sand and then "filler primer" I let that sit for a few days as I want it to be fully dried and make sure it doesnt crack. Its a "high build" primer made to fill in any imperfections from sanding or low spots where I filled the holes. You will be more than satisfied with the outcome bruh. TRUST that...Ill have pics up later this eve. Here's a long *ss vid for you to enjoy.

Popcorn time..Day two of the work I put in. Im doin this so you see what all goes into it bruh..And all the time to edit the vid for you :wink:
