Anyone know a good panel beater / spray painter??

[BassTracker]

Hi guys, looks like I may have just bought myself a 1985 jeep wagon. Great looking car. (will post some pics when not on my phone) it has some hail damage on the bonnet that I want to get repaired and needs a coat of paint. I'd really love to paint it camo but I don't want to spend too much so will settle for olive drab in matt finish. I want to get the bull bar (chrome) and powder coated roof cage done in matt black as well as door handles and grill. Does anyone know someone who's reasonably cheap and does a good job with this kind of thing?

Thanks guys

Brad

Going on a recent post Brad I am sure if you fed Ellicat the right food he should be able to give you a good spray job from 10 paces.

Nice job mate! Congratulations on buying a real 4x4 instead of one of those TOYodors or KneeSands... :silly: :silly: :silly: :silly:

Haha good on ya Gary, I've always loved toyotas but even though this car looks a bit rough at the moment I'm already growing fond of it.. I'm thinking of painting it myself after getting it prepped by a panel beater. It wont be too hard, just the polished chrome I'm not sure of. It's really straight so it shouldn't take too much. With some dark tint and the mud tyres off my paj it should be a simple unquie car! I'm already looking at painting the box trailer olive drab as well haha!!

[BassTracker]

this is the color im looking at

[BassTracker]

light camo looks pretty good too

ps mines an old cherokee rambler not a wrangler.

that desert camo colour is cool

[haines490slc]

that truck will look unreal when it is done, people on the farm at the end of my street have had one of them since brand new, and it is still smick and goes well.

[BassTracker]

Yeah it should look really good, just been on the phone with kurt and he's confident he can do a really nice camo on it... start the process next week, ordering paint now.. looking for some spotties, trim, olive drab seat covers... haha if i get too carried away it wont stop...keep it simple stupid

[JarrydA]

She will be a beast thats for sure! Keen to see it finished.

[BassTracker]

Thanks guys, keep an eye out later today, going to put a few different paint jobs up to see what people think.i don't have photo shop but I tried different colors in Microsoft paint, but it didn't turn out to well. Olive drab on its own looks cool with mat black bumper rims and bullbar, so does the desert tan..

I haven't seen it here (haven't really looked either) but take a look at Hercules or Rhino spray in bedliner jobs. I used it on the undercarriage of my 72 Ranchero but in parts of the states people use it on the body (I think it looks good on the fenders and below) really holds up well against rust and scratches.

[madmullet]

looking for some spotties,

well you know where to get them as well......meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[BassTracker]

Ok Kurt you are getting a Christmas card this year!
