I lost my face to the jaws of a poodle
Ok so here's my confession.
Got a wild hair up my nameake yesterday, maybe the heat finally has affected me, but I got to looking at the dually fenders and the embarrasement to what they look like after a few years from a full restoration.
Yup, I used the wrong type of etching primer for the bare fiberglass and nothing is sticking to it.
I was actually peeling sheets of the paint off while talking to Travis yesterday afternoon as he was sippin berry beer.
So I was able to get both fenders off the trucks and the passenger side one is completely bare now awaiting a few repairs to the fiberglass that the gravel roads have caused the past few years.
In between awaiting the air compressor to recharge, I was able to finish the wiring to the 7 way plug and the brake controller, mounted and wired in the flood lights on the headache rack.
Overall it was a productive day given the 85 degre heat and fresh sunburn to boot.
This afternoon, I'll finish stripping the drivers side dually fender and get them both prepped for priming tomorrow, then get em painted, cleared and reinstalled hopefully before weeks end.
I still have to conduct some general lube and maintenance requirements on Goldie, get the trailer prepped to hit the road and process about 160 gallons of veggie.
As far as the intercooler goes, if it shows up this week, I may get it put on before we take off, but I feel it will be a post rally project.
I think I'll be cutting it close.
