This is the nicest Orange I've ever seen. I was contemplating adding some flake but figured I'd spray it out and I'm glad I didn't add any. Wow! The color flops in the sun like you wouldn't believe. Pictures just don't do it justice. My new favorite color!
Last week I picked up a 98 F150. Pretty good shape for this area anyway. After a little thought and some laughing I decided to make my own Tonka truck in my style. Been busy all week running down parts and fixing rust. Designed my own custom bumpers and side steps. Then I designed bed rails and...
We have a lot of changes coming hopefully all for the better. We intend to have the BEST forum out there. It is going to take me until the first of the year to implement all these changes. If you have an idea post it here or PM me and I will take it into serious consideration. I'm still learning...

My latest build. 6'6"x10' 3000 lb Axle w/brakes.
Black Spi Epoxy and 7 year old SPI Black. After 7 years on the shelf it sprayed like day old paint. Gotta love it.
1) What media do you prefer for blasting sheet metal?
2) What media is best for heavy rusted parts like suspension pieces?
It's been years since I've used anything but my spot blaster. I just dug out my old pressure pot blaster and figured I'd give it a go. My blasting guy sold out and...
After a short rest yesterday I got up to packing peanuts all over the living room. Seems Tracy just had to open that big SPI box that just arrived. Well I guess one of the kids grabbed a handful and tossed them at her. Bad move kid!!! Well long story short there was a peanut war in my house. I...
This should be a year long project. Like so many personal projects it's been put on hold for too many years now. But I figure I'd start sharing... Have tons of pics just have to dig them out...
