Yes email me with any questions kirbyman123@hotmail.com If you take the bumper off you have to use pop rivets and that is a pain to me, but I am lazy lol. I have done it that way but it is very easy to just tape the heck out of it. If you get any on the rubber don't freak out, just take some oops or a Mr. clean eraser and the paint will come right off. Take the motor off like Tom said, or tape a peice of paper over it if you wish. Again the over spray will come right off. MAKE sure that if you clear coat it to wait a few weeks for the paint to cure. If you put it on too soon then the paint will bubble and rise right before youe eyes. It's kind of neat to watch, but very depressing after you have spent all the time and then have to do it all over again. My first paint job was great, it was the 34 special. The second one gave me all kinds of hell and I painted it three times and I still am not happy with it (U4001) All the rest have been judt fine. Thanks Tom about the tip on the Taupe color. I have few from the era and was wondering what to use to match that. Any idea what to match Seal Greige (sp?) with. Phillip |
