Re: Re: 1955 Traction 11B “Barn Find” Project

Time to tackle the bumpers and I think the previous owner used them just for that. I have had to take photos of other tractions to try and figure out how they are supposed to look.
I have unbolted them and ground off the rivets to send all the individual parts to the sandblaster. They will protect the chromed side but realistically there is not much chrome left, so I will clean these up and try and polish something back into them.

More painting, I was going to leave the lights alone but after all the other painting I have done they looked a bit of a mess so I micro blasted them and primered them. Final coat is being applied and in between coats I am wet sanding them.

I have sanded the dashboard and prepared it for paint
