63 Paint finish

[Michael S.]

My '63 SWC is nearing paint completion. I have a question on the wheel well inner lip finish- is it supposed to be smooth, similar to an outer body surface, or more rough/textured, with primer and paint runs etc., rough-ish fiberglass ? In either case, it is painted body color (sorry for the obvious).

My '67 is over restored and the lip finish is no different than than any body surface.

Thanks

Michael,

If you are talking about the fender lip where it turns under it's part of the outer body and painted. The fiberglass is all press molded so it's smooth.

Blackout is after paint so picture a worker spraying to cover body color after paint. Probably alot of bare fiberglass in these areas..
