I'm in the process of stealing my dad's K5, seeing as mine is not running right now and is starting to need some body work.
My dad's gonna get a more fuel efficient car with gas the way it is and surrender the K5 to me. She runs good, and has had a "floor restoration". Now all i wanna do is replace the fenders and get it painted, so here goes.
Fenders: Are they spot welded from the factory or just bolt on? Will this be an easy item to replace in my own garage?
Paint: I know you guys don't like this, but I wanna paint her black primer. She has paint on her now, and various spots of primer where rust has been removed. Can I just sand the existing paint down and primer over that?
What should I do for prep? After prep I'll find someone with a gun and get it sprayed.
