well a week later and its rusting again

Well it didn't quite make it a week, there must be a little corner of the steel showing through or something, cuz one of the edges of the fill is rusting. dammit.



Oh well more sanding and more painting.. sigh.



Got the Rocker guards, have to paint them now. then prepare to drill holes, prime and paint them on the jeep and then install the gasket, and then install the rockers. Fun never stops. If I can find the time.. haha. Ricki is working a couple days this week so I should be able to manage to get something done. :P

The fender is all painted!!

Not too shabby for my first fill.



Its all painted.. I am gonna give it a second coat in a couple days, but its all done.



Check the pictures link in the last post for all the pics.



Weeee!!



Oh and last weekend I went and saw my grampy, Took Ricki to Digby and showed her around there, all the sites, and some locations of memories I told her about. some good some bad. and I also brought home my grampy's canoe. He gave it to me. its a lovely canoe, and its almost exactly the same length as the jeep.. haha.



FUN!

Second day of repair

Well put the final layer of filler on the fender today and then two more touch ups after sanding.. lots and lots and lots of sanding.



But its nice and smooth and level and I think it looks pretty good.



I put the first layer of primer on so far and hopefully if the weather holds I will put on a second layer of primer tomorrow.



Then after the trip to my Grandfathers this weekend, I will put the nice and pretty chili pepper red paint coat on and hopefully it will match up nice.



It will likely still look a bit like a patch of color.. but shouldn't look like the hole I cut out.. haha.



Here is some pictures

Rusty Fender flare

Well My Jeeps fender is finally getting its cancer fixed.



I cut the infected area off, and cleaned out as much as I could underneath. then put primer on. the next day I filled it with bondo body fill. had to get as much done as I could before the rain.



Now.. when the weather turns nice again I will put a third and final layer of body fill on and then start the sanding process, then when thats done its prime and paint again. should look almost as good as new





Hopefully. haha
