Really really great work.
What a fun thread to read too!
Thanks for sharing.
The color looks good too.
 
You are right, I was sleeping :thumbup:
I wonder what wags is up to tonight :happy1:
 
I'm officially goofing off today...going to the beach...drinkin some beer's...watchin some bikini babes...maybe the future miss Wagg's will be there.....next project is to install starter and battery and wiring,radiator,cooler lines then install the rest of the suspension and brakes which most of it is already cleaned and painted,then to rebuild the drivers side 1/4 panel and then start blocking out the rest of the car.after shes all blocked out i'll put on a coat of slick sand...block that down, reprime with 2k...block that and paint the rest of the car.I'll be cutting in the hood and trunklid and installing them firsthand.still havent decided if she's gonna get two toned and if so a custom stripe to break em up a lil bit.....:thumbup:
 
had fun at the beach yesterday then worked all day today......decided to throw a lil' jewelry at pop's ride.... the blue and red anodized ends just looked like crap with the orange scheme of things so out with the gloves,cheap dollar general oven cleaner (works better for removing anodizing) and a fine scotchbrite to help it along..installed the radiator and the trans cooler lines then polished the ends and installed a few of but I'm beat so not much progress today
