Looks REAL good, Brother!

What's that trailer off to the side in the first pic?

I can’t remember if i shared my paint job for the 1123 here or not, but here she was. Pressure washed with purple power, any rust spots neutralized, sprayed using my MTVR as a dry clean air source, and shot through a harbor freight $20 gun. View attachment 888703

This project is taking longer than I intended for it to be with work, kids sports and life in general getting in the way. Considering the work that's gone into it for general maintenance, new parts, etc - she ain't bad. Just a recap, but I used a cheap HF HVLP gun that I opened up with a 5/64" drill bit so that I could shoot the paint unthinned.

I'm gonna try and get the turret assembled tomorrow.

Has anyone painted an engine block with Behr Marquee? These LDT’s run pretty cool. Wondering if it would hold up. Latex starts to degrade at 256 degrees F.

Funny how it's not 255 degrees or 257 degrees, but 256 Degrees.

Like Ice: 32 Degrees and your water goes solid.

That's cool

Painted mine with Behr 6 years ago and still looks good. The truck sat outside for most of that time also. I’ve painted 3 with it, and all turned out very well.

How often do you wash that sucker down?

Yes, I painted a deuce once that was a full inside and out job. The heat didn't affect it as much as fluid seepage which got under the paint. With the fan constantly blowing and the block surface hot it eventually peeled. Nature of the beast.

I power wash it in spring and late summer, damp cloth frequently for parades and shows. I use a semi gloss which helps too!
