I have to ask, what was used to strip the paint off the doors and hood ? The truck looks amazing
We tried a couple different things, mostly the red and gold can Jasco from your local hardware store. We also used a spray can of stuff, I don't remember the name but I'll ask Greg if he can chime in about it. The other parts are just plain old #30 sand in a Harbor Freight sand blaster to remove the surface rust and some of the tough spots that didn't quite come clean from the chemicals.
are you using aftermarket body panels? Have any troubles getting the gaps to line up? I am mixing new and old and the new stuff just doesnt seem to gap out as well as the OE stuff. I get the need for new aftermarket though. Finding rust/dent free OE panels are getting harder to come by.
Yellow chromate bolts are the finishing touch that sets off any Toyota restoration. I have purchased the chemicals to build a setup to do it but haven’t tried yet. //www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nmn94B5UUuU
It's Official. My truck has a spot in the 2018 SEMA show in Vegas. Just hope I can get it done.....
What happened here? No finished photos? How did this restoration end?
