Guest catzsnot Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Hi all - going to start woodgraining the dash and interior pieces of a '37 Royal and was wondering if anyone would like to see pics of it all? Didn't want to post a bunch of pics if no one really interested. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

36 D2 Coupe Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 One more for 36 Dodge! I don't think I can rescue the original woodgraining and would like to see how you do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest catzsnot Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Wow! Ok, hopefully today I will be able to start some work on the interior door pieces and will take lots of pictures. Just have to throw a set of heads on a car and I will be free to do some woodgraining. Thanks all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest catzsnot Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Here are a few pics of the first one I did on the '36 Airstream. Have a way better camera now so will be able to go into more detail as I do the new one. And yes, I know the dash pieces should have been nickel plated...but that is a whole different story . I think the woodgraining could have been a bit darker on the dash. Going to do it a bit different this time around. It turned out ok though I think?

barry22 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Are you sure that's not a hand-carved wooden dash you have there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest catzsnot Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 OK, finally got to start on this, but then got this cold/flu crap thing going around. Here is what I have so far. https://drive.google.com/?authuser=0#folders/0B7RiH1R31J8pTlkyQmd6UDlYbVE There is one file that is a movie file. (Have to excuse the focus issues - think hubby forgot how to use the camera). I was going to try and use the woodgraining tool shown in the pics, but decided to just do it by hand. The frame was just primered and then painted with the color we had Napa mix up for us. (Martin Senor brand). I just used some wood stain, a cheapie brush and got some 'sea sponges' which I tear into little pieces. I was a little afraid because the temp was so cold out there when I did it but the next day it looked even better. Will get more pics when I can shake this crappy cold. Stay healthy people!
