I get it. Some of us are more interested in the details and restoration. Some driving around in circles. Makes sense to me. The theory is based on information. Now days we base information on hearsay. Pretty sure you are someone I trust for ford information. Last edited by Tinker; 08-28-2022 at 10:42 PM. |

Re: Painting underside of bed
I tend to get bored with them after the project part is over. I think I've only driven the woodie twice this summer. Most of my spare time is spent on whatever current project is in the shop. For years I loved to build and rebuild boats. Then they'd sit in the water or on a trailer while I started something else. A guy could fall overboard or sink out there for God's sake...

Re: Painting underside of bed
Gb you like building stuff. Maybe not totally so interested in all the shows. Or maybe so. I like and drive old cars. Not a big fan of being at shows. I have a problem. Guess I like the cars and not the show. I appreciate the fact that the shows give exposure.
But you like building stuff. I like that. I could say, like everything. Building stuff. Chop up a nice 36 and put a new frame and drive train. Make it modern. But you are not doing that. Granted we are moving into to personal preferences and not how it was. But you are not adding to how the bed floor was done either......... Last edited by Tinker; 08-28-2022 at 11:17 PM. |

Re: Painting underside of bed
So the wood under my 41 is still ALL there. Wither it was painted or not seems irrelevant, as it was all covered with under coating , most of which is now peeling . Tim

Re: Painting underside of bed
Relevant? Perhaps not to you. However, if you would read the original post, it is relevant to that fellow.

Re: Painting underside of bed
I know this falls into over restored but this is after one thin coat of spar varnish then a rub of ebony stain followed by two coats of spar varnish. I am debating on applying a little overspray of the blue paint on the wood. Art
