Its coming slow but coming.Trying to take advantage of somewhat decent temps. Kerosene aint cheap:angry7: Going with a Dark grey exterior or Dark Purple.One of them for the body paint.I can only do so much at a time......Fumes and open flame i dont think works well.....LOL. Anyway here are a few new pics.Hope you enjoy.................:read2: Torsion bar sitting in place to see what the lower control arm looks like silver........First coat of black paint except around steering box.....Probly doing it all the wrong way................
