Default Re: 1941 Ford Pickup frame-off restore for the next generation

Next project the hood.

I had already soaked all the bolts, etc. in PB Blaster awhile back so after my friendly tap with a hammer, all came out well except for one.

Started by wire brushing the inside first, followed by a thorough cleaning and a couple coats 2K epoxy sealer.

Top of the hood got my favorite stripper applied (Citristripper) and than most paint scrapped off with a plastic squeegee. Thoroughly washed and a little metal repair, hammered out a couple minor dents and thoroughly cleaned again.

2 coats high build primer followed by a 400 wet sand job. Finally 3 coats PPG DelFleet Essentials Gray single stage polyurethane enamel.

Another weekend down.
