Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Plastic Repairs & Roll Bars

[Davis Martin <martin-davis@xxxx>]

Doc,

 Way ahead of ya. I backed up all the cracks with plastic, except one that I used a piece of metal flashing. I spent another 2 hours working on it last night. Sanded it with 220 then spot putty, then sanded it with 400. Then I cleaned it with MEK and a Qtip. made sure it was all clean n dried. I started to spray it with bondo brand brown primer and it started tp wrinkle! so today if I can get some time I will resand it with 400 and try spraying it with a different kind of primer. I know the wrinkles indicate dirty parts but I used MEK which I use to clean all my parts with before paint. Never had paint wrinkle before. Maby it is a chem reaction with the old paint?

 I am going to make some calls this comming week to see what I can do about my roll bar. I may very well get the one from S&W. If I do I may go pick it up. I am going to Maryland in about 2 weeks to pick um a 70 390 service engine, and a spare 401 for the new Amc Team project. Bill is in Canada picking up the next Amc Team car this week.
