Pics of the Hood it is back to its more convex shape as apposed to its former concave shape that would have pooled water all over on it. Forgot to take a pic right before I primed it. The pic with the filler on it is only about Half done

Holly buckets! You are not messin around! Looks great Sean. Can't wait to see how you finish it off. Gonna keep the Classic Glastron Swoosh?

fireman24mn · « **Reply #67 on:** April 06, 2012, 09:03:35 PM »

Yes the swoosh with the orange flake as well. I got a few samples of flake. Wont be the exact same but will be close I like the look of one of the flakes samples better than the original. Might get a few more samples before I decide. Building the round back seats tonight. That "bendy" plywood is neat stuff.

Updated my web site too if anyone wants to take a look. You may have seen it in the back ground on a few of the photos. No pics of the 18 on there but lots of other projects That I have done. www.pehrsonscustoms.com

Looks like you do real nice work Sean!

fireman24mn · « **Reply #74 on:** April 11, 2012, 01:55:01 PM »

1st pic is the test cards with black, white and orange base colors, one orange is sprayed over black. No clear or flake yet.
2nd pic Card on left side is 2 different color flakes top half and bottom half
3rd you can really see the difference that the base color makes. I will be spraying the orange base down first. One reason it will use alot less flake and 2 you wont see the black or white showing threw the flake.
4th straight on shot of the card. Black/white/orange base color when looking at the pic
The pics don't do it justice looks way better in person.

I agree, I like the orange on orange.

Yo Sean purty please with sugar on top could you send me a pattern/drawing of your buckets?

fireman24mn · « **Reply #77 on:** April 11, 2012, 06:17:44 PM »

You will have to ask Tim (Still_fishin) I just gave it to him last night. They were easy to make though with the Bendy plywood. I am still amazed what that stuff will do.

still_fishin · « **Reply #78 on:** April 11, 2012, 07:28:18 PM »

I will make a few copies of the patterns. Anyone interested in one let me know.
