  • Glue Pot
    I purchased this 5 gallon stainless steel pot on craigslist for $50 bucks. It was dirty and full of paint I had to strip off. I had to purchase all the valves, gun, hose and mechanicals for it. I made the cart and hose rack.

    I poke a hole in the top of a 5 gallon bucket of glue and put the whole thing inside and put the lid with tube in the glue bucket. It takes 5 minutes to change pails. there is a pot liner in it but I have never had to change it. I have about $800.00 into it.

    The gun has great control and can put a lot of glue down or very little at a pinpoint. You can put the spray head anywhere and no cup to spill. it is Graco brand everything.

    The first glue hose i had was made of rubber and the solvents in the glue would dry out and plug the gun. I switched to a plastic and that stopped. It has a Graco 289992 AirPro gun.

  • 58 Vette top irons
    The early vette tops are more of a classic Carrige tops. It is a bit primitive but there are adjustments. Fit the frame with the weatherstrips on the frame and bows. make sure the rear bow is fitted to the shape of the boot lid. I usualy do that with the rear bow off the frame and lay it on the lid to check shape. the bracket that mounts to the car can be twisted to make it fold tighter under the lid. I only use Al Knock tops on vettes
