Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger
Being as it was all going so well, thought it was about time to pull it all apart again…

24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not…

Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger
It’s not too bad, apart from the rear centre of the roof, which has been badly filled instead of straightened out.

Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger
cool, will you paint the roof anyway and then decide if it's getting a new vinyl top? at least then the roof's fully painted/protected if it does go under new vinyl.

Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger
It’s definitely getting a new top, I already have it. I know they divide opinion and some aren’t keen, but I like them. 
As for the paint, I had factored in panting it and then adding the roof, for the same reason, but I’m talking to some classic car companies in the area about it, as I only want this done once and right. I’m told that the adhesive won’t take if not done correctly and the last thing I want is moisture trapping.

Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger
yes it's definately not nice sanding fresh paint so the glue sticks for sure

Re: Floyd Brothers 70 Challenger
Slowly but surely turning it into a pile of parts again and finding the biggest problem areas.
