Re: 57 Chevy Task force Truck
I should have known you chaps are to 'paraat' for a half cocked answer.... so 'amptelik' / Official it is a epoxy base, self leveling primer, it's then painted over. After paint they use a clear cavity wax sealer for extra protection. We are in Debben after all. And my wife has told me I am never to sell this truck.... So she will be built to last!

wax? bee wax or ear wax ? wax?
But seriously whats the time frame for this build ? when you think chassis and body will be ready and painted ? and how long till its finished?
I ask because I am interested to see how long a full time build takes vs my part time weekend only build.

The Panel shop is moving fast, what worries me is Mark Davies on the engine, gearbox build, fuel injection & wiring.....

Re: 57 Chevy Task force Truck
So with the rand / Dollar stacks seem a bit onerous price wise... so we're having a go at making local. Tunes to be changed / cast still..::
