Bobby Covert Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 Iam working hard on the front end getting the paint off so I can polish the aluminum . I cant wait until I get to get the polisher after it .I had a hard time getting used to the 615 fromt end, but Iam over it now. It seems there is always something that needs doing both in appearance and mechanics. The nice thing about that is when you lose your patience on something ther is still something else that needs attention!

de37champ Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Its a nice looking ride,i stared restoring my B about 4 yrs ago, i took it down to the frame, sometimes i will go like a house a fire and thow a thousand or 2 at it, then i get cover up with outside jobs and the old B will jus sit in the corner collecting dust, the plan was to have it done for some shows this summer but that is looking bad right now Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/8405-bobby-covert-mack-bumblebee/#findComment-31198 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Looks like the dog is about to have one on top of that hood. The red inside is from the flames. That must be the Lee Highway in Virigina. And the fuel gauge looks like Robs truck. I think the dog needs a partner.mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/8405-bobby-covert-mack-bumblebee/#findComment-31422 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 Bobby,Yesterday I took a window stop from the bottom of the driver door with me. The auto paint shop matched it great. I told them to give me Dupont PPG paint, the Brand Code # 415960, OEM Code 12450....Green Metallic....Mixing Scheme: Delfleet Mid- Tier( ESSS Metallic. They added ESM 120 +15.0+20.0 + 50.0. ..... Also bought hardener and activator. That should get you fixed up to be exact match and yes it is enamel paint.Regardsmike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/8405-bobby-covert-mack-bumblebee/#findComment-31433 Share on other sites More sharing options...
