ITS ALIVE!!! 66 Cuda running again!

Well, been working on the "free" type of work on the car today.. Had an old battery hold-down from my 98 Ram I sold last year... They were pretty ratty, rubber on them had rotted half off from battery acid... stripped the remaining rubber on them off, washed them in baking soda to kill the remaing acid, sanded the surface rust off them, did a base coat in satin black rustoleum, let them dry (with the help of the heat gun) then hit them with a couple coats of VHT silver wheel paint... found some brand new hold down rods in my tool box that were a bit too long, took the dremel tool to trim them down to size, put some black heat shrink tubing on them to help with any rubbing on the case of the battery.. Looks awesome.
Tore the center console out today as well, took everything apart, polished the chrome, cleaned the carpet surrounding the console (with the pressure washer.... you dont want to know how much ich came off the carpet... its actually black once again)

Ill have some pictures up later.
