Anyone got 1 of these brackets for the front fender to pillar on a 65 66, Cheers

Duplicating the crush points under the inner fenders, the 69 shock towers dont have them in the same places as the 66 aprons

Getting ready to spray some epoxy

Aussie-67 · « **Reply #132 on:** September 10, 2023, 04:09:36 pm »

Painting it the same colour?

Rayatswan · « **Reply #133 on:** September 10, 2023, 07:18:46 pm »

Hi Tony, I have changed brands of epoxy, the House of kolor stuff is really hard to get so I am trying Rest O Finish, similiar colour I think.

I haven't tried reso finish. I usually use PPG for primer. Pricing looks ok. Let us know how it goes on.

Sprayed some Epoxy today, it went on much thicker than House of Kolor even tho I put some reducer in it (only about 2%)
Supposed to be Grey/Green but looks much more grey, the photo makes it look completely grey.

I think the big test will be how well it holds up around rosett welds

Seems to cover ok.

Re-assembly, getting ready for welding

Aussie-67 · « **Reply #139 on:** September 23, 2023, 07:37:13 pm »

Lot of welding ahead. What engine are you putting in it? Did you notch the towers for better access??

Rayatswan · « **Reply #140 on:** September 23, 2023, 08:05:49 pm »

Hi Tony, read the earlier posts mate, all the info is there. Cheers..... Ray
