Re: 57 Nomad Project.........
The Hood had a bunch of stone chips on it from a couple years of Power Tours.....And ....everyone knows how that works out.......Now that the big stuff is finished and every time I looked at the car, all I saw was the stone chips.......So.......the car is at Pulera's getting the hood repainted, other little chips touched up.......then a good buffing......Then it's time to put some miles under it's belt......

Re: 57 Nomad Project.........
It's been a while , update........Pulera's got the paint mixed and matched.......as long as they got it that close I decided to have them fix the passenger side wheel well area.......there was a spot (very small) where there was a paint adhesion problem (small bubble)......not a rust issue at all....But......Like everything at Pulera's......they don't do anything unless they do it correctly.....so....Before and after pic's............Should get it back next week so I can get some miles on it.......
 After   They also repainted the top of the fenders that had a bunch of paint chips that I put in while installing the core support   Almost there..........

Re: 57 Nomad Project.........
Update.........The car is pretty much finished and we have taken it on a couple of short trips to check it out.......A couple of things needing improvement are getting rid of the rear leaf spring choppy ride (to be replaced with a 4 link Coil Over set-up) and the front seat.........We will be getting a split bench contoured foam seat and get it re-upholstered in original material to match......the stock seat is like sitting on a Park bench......LOL........Done but not "Done"......
