Hello Im new here. I just bought a 67 Pontiac Bonneville it is my first pontiac. Im restoring it to it former glory . I'm just looking advice, or tips. When it comes to them.

Sounds like a great project. What are your restoration plans? Stock, resto-mod, wild/custom?

Numbers matching 400 and 3 speed

Basically keeping it stock. But with update radio, LineX sprayed frame. Replacing all engine and trans seals. Redo the stock interior and replacing the current bucket seats with the bench seat. Thats it basically nothing else. Im trying numbers matching for when I do shows

If I may, I would suggest you might also consider Hammerite rust cap paint. While LineX is a great paint and a good choice for a frame, I would tell you Hammerite is a better choice. The main difference between the two is dirt particulate adhesion. Hammerite is 30% glass particles. Which makes it very hard and durable, after currying and very slick. This makes it very easy to keep clean.

i would highly recommend Hammerite as I have used it for 50 years.

 

 

Looks very good. Nice job.  

I'm impressed. Last Indian has so many little tricks. I definitely can learn a thing or two from him.

Last Indian.I was told the samething from my buddy that owns a 65 GTO. It looks amazing. It was done last year. I will be using Hammerite instead of the Line-X.

Good choice, but just be careful! It is a product that carries potential risk. The toluene and other aromatics are both breathing and skin absorption issues. Wear gloves and a mask if you work in a confined space, not outside space. At least wear gloves if ventilation isn’t an issue. And if you spray, which I don’t recommend, all the above plus protective clothing. 

Believe it or not the whole underneath of the Indian, car in the picture, was painted with a 1/2 high quality brush, 3 coats! The first coat will look a little hit and miss. The second starts to build volume and you’ll think you’re painting contact cement & the third goes on fairly nice.
