We'll do our best to keep pics coming. It's a very cool piece. Obviously, going to take a while. We've been supplied with good used parts, or NOS body panels. Depending what we find after blasting in the floor, and trunk area, we'll most likely use AMD parts per the owner request. While it may look bad in the pics, it actually isn't in the bad shape. We've see way worse. It's setting on the trailer now, going to the blaster Monday if I get over this flu bug. (not pretty) |

Another item to add to the 'Day Two' list....the Sears FM - 8 track player, complete with custom installation. |
Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project
I missed that.....as well as the shag carpet on the package tray and the coaxial speakers.
Professional Sears installation to boot! Also forgot the Hurst T Handle Shift Knob and DLX seat belts. |
Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project

Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project
What are they using to strip the paint, yet preserve the crayon markings?

If you understand that those paint stick/ crayon marks were applied directly on bare steel B4 any primer, then sprayed over. The image is kind of locked in after stripping. However media blasting is not real forgiving if trying to save these for documentation. On a car like this Z28, I would have chosen to use some stripper and or lacquer thinner to slowly do the fire wall. This way allot of the primer base is left in tact. Here is the "N10" notice all the gray primer that bled through the caryon mark.

Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project
Good call on the N10 and looks like a big OK in the upper right corner above the D80.

Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project
The firewall was stripped with soda. We've had good results with that process. I agree with Mike. Laquer thinner works well also. Media destroys the marks.

Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project
Thanks guys. Good information for when I dive into my 63

The firewall in the photo was stripped with plastic and that is all we use. It has worked good for us as long as you are careful and take it off slowly.

Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project
Boy Rick, that is clear as day! Is that for an LS5 or 6?
|
Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project
LS6.
I stripped Mark Mitchells 70 Z28 with plastic and had the exact same results. Unfortunately I wrote over all of the shadow marks with a sharpie and then took the photos so you will only see the sharpie markings. |
Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project
More pics soon.

Re: 1969 Yellow Yellow Z28 RS project
Cowl Induction and Rally Sport, firewall holes.
