I’ve been sanding and painting my interior and have noticed the lack of primer under the paint. The exterior had primer. Have y’all noticed this too? | | | | | Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,262 Bubba - Curmudgeon | | Bubba - Curmudgeon Joined: Sep 2001 Posts: 29,262 | What make, year, and model? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2016 Posts: 1,841 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2016 Posts: 1,841 | I know the interior of mine is original, absolutely no signs of repaint or other restoration. I agree, it appears to be no primer, just paint on steel. mine is a '57

It was also untouched except by Father Time and Mother Nature.I’ve been sanding the interior side of the doors to prep for paint. Interestingly there is no trace of primer on the door panels but the window trim bezels had black primer like the exterior. In the years working on this truck and others one thing I have learned is don’t be surprised at what you find or don’t find. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2001 Posts: 1,285 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Aug 2001 Posts: 1,285 | Agree with the "black sealer" appearing to be the base coat. Mine is 54. | | |
