LOL!! I've just about talked myself into it. If I do, you bet your *** I'll do a progress thread to see how it goes.

And you are absolutely correct. You would want to strip it off as a prep for new paint. Is that really a bad thing? Typically, most paint shops would strip down to bare metal for a quality paint job anyways.

See, that's the problem, not all of us have a rusty car with natural patina. Here is a way for someone, such as myself, to take a car with an aging paint job and quickly transform the appearance into something that looks aged and vintage. And this could easily be accomplished over the course of...

I appreciate all the opinions, keep them coming

OK, here's what we're working with. A 1967 Impala SS, originally a 327 powerglide, PS, PDB, Air. Now it has a 406 and TH350. Currently I'm in the works of putting together a nice low RPM, high torque 496 that should pull hard up to 5000. Perfect for a street car. I want it to serve double...

Yes, I'll be at Moultrie, we're heading down on Saturday. If you go, we can meet up if you like. Hit me with a PM and I'll shoot you my number.

I used to be stationed at Alamogordo when I was a pup in the Air Force. We loved that state and tried to retire there, just couldn't get it worked out.

I certainly do. I wont be there this weekend however, I got to go outta town and wont get back until Sunday. I see you're in Augusta? You get down this way often?

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. Old Iron, I think you're the one who turned me on to this place, thanks. I'll get some pic's of the Impala up here real soon. Need to get home from work 1st so I can post from the house computer.
