Thanks everyone for helping me on the issues of painting my '60 TR3, and
the spirited discussion of BRG paint. Now I'm pretty clear on what to tell
the body shop:
1) Lets pick a paint that looks nice
2) Paint the parts off the car
3) A little putty is OK
4) Clear coat base coat is the way to go.
In particular thank you to George Richardson, Mike Thompson, Brad Kahler,
Malcolm Walker, Joe Curry, Fred Thomas, Brian Sanborn and Don Pikovnick. I
copied your replies to show the body shop guy, so he's get a sense of what
I'm trying for. He's located midway between work and home, so I can stop
off there and do the preliminary dismantling, and visit the car every so
often.
This list is great. I'll have a lot more q's I think!
Appreciatively,
Bob Klips
