Hey whats up everybody. I am looking to seal, putty and paint my rear side doors and panel out the windows. Looking to hear from anyone who has done this already or anyone with some helpful feedback on how to get started on this. Hit me back with some ideas please. Thanks!

its giving me a.........."woody"

 

[polarproject]

well i hope you are damn good with the wood....i would look at the old woody's from back in the day for some isparation huh?...see how they are done.....and remember keep it tasteful.....dont go overboard......and use the right wheels.....like a classic style rim.....like kragers<~~~(i think i spelled that right)or something like that....go with big rims!.....none of that 15" stuff

hey, what's up Brad! Yeah it's something I have been wanting to do since I saw a couple XB's done like that. The cool thing is that they were both black. There was one in the SEMA pics from Tim and then there is this one. I LOVE this one---> http://www.justinhampton.com/news.scioncar.html . I got a grip of crazy ass ideas. This is just the begining. Hopefully I can find some info. I am going to talk to the family but I was getting restless and needed to post something up.

Ok, I know it's not a panel van, but it is a woody...

i dig the vinal on the sides but the rims are lame.......the right rim will make or break a car in my opinion if they put more of a hotrod style rim on it with it lowerd would look nice!

sick i say sick

 

[polarproject]

i think the wood vinal with those rims and that drop would be a nice combo..huh?

Woody Kits

I have the woody kits like the one shown by ShadowxB in stock with or without front fenders.http://www.scionpro.com/cart/product_info.php?products_id=563

Thanks for everyone's response so far. I don't mean to be rude and I think the woody style is really cool, but that is totally not what I am going for. Look at the picture above of Justin Hampton's "Creature Screecher" and that is what I am going for, except for the grafix on the side. What I need help with is the how to's on sealing the doors and paneling the windows. Thanks again.

you would have to cut out the section around the door and weld a pannel to fill the door cracks and make it smoothe and some bondo to fill any flat spots to make it all smoothe....then around the windows do a similar method....thats what i would do..

Take it to a bodyshop, It's nothing you wanna tackle yourself. The simple fact that you are asking us tells me you are not capable of doing it yourself.

And a regular collision shop won't normally do it, you'll need to find a shop willing to do custom work. I am a bodyman, there is no cheap way to get this done right.

 

[palefacegangstaXB]

Thanks guys I really appriciate your feedback. I just want to know what I'm instore for. It sounds like a lot. But hey, it's all for the love of my XB. No job is too big!

 

[yellow_sub]

you are crazy dave! lol it'll be sick once you done though. you best bet is weld everything up after removing the windows. you gonna keep the car white ro repaint the whole thing?
