I always install the bushings and ball joints before I paint them, then mask off the stuff I don't want painted. This way you don't mess up the paint when installing the bushings and ball joints. Unless you are having them powder coated and they have to be baked. Here are a couple of pics of my son's 72 Nova I am doing now
Nice job! The paint looks great. How did you do the non-painted parts, like the sway bar?
I epoxy primed and top coated my parts with chassis black. Turned out great but then I found some better urethane paint. It goes on awesome and hard as nails.
Some of my parts that I epoxy primed cracked and chipped off in some areas. I think my son-in-law may have spray it too thick in some areas. It happens in areas where the surface is not flat. Like in a dip. Any ideas/comments as to what we could be doing wrong?
