67 Camaro Body & Paint
My son and I have stripped down a 67 Camaro completely. The sub frame, doors, hood, trunk, front fenders, windows etc. all removed. The body is in very good condition with only about 6 small door dings to repair. It is currently primer black, which was done by the previous owner and it doesn't look like he did a very good job. There is no rust damage and only a couple small areas around the back window with a light surface rust. Now the question.
Where do we start? My son Trevor wants to paint it a high gloss black, but I know all the work needs to be done in the prep. Can anybody give some recommendations for sanders, sanding methods, body repair for the door dings, etc? Anything do get us going in the right direction?
For anyone interested, this project started as thread "67 camaro project with my son". There's about 70 posts there that can give the history of this project, but it almost all deals with the engine and drive train. I got lax and didn't post for a while and its now in the archeives if your interested. Once we get this body work done maybe I'll resurrect it to the finish of the project. I thought the new thread subject might attract the body and paint guru's of the club.
It was SWMBO's little dog. .
