I was in the shop about 9 hours today, and the place is trashed........ more of the same, but the end is near.
entire back of the car is ready for initial epoxy prime..........shop and car are too cold tonight, so I blocked out and nitpicked all the bodywork I did up front and on the doors. That stuff will get reprimed/finish primed when I do the rear end.
....... and the Champs won again
came back from 19 down, and won on a blocked field goal

Nice progress with your car! Probably hard to concentrate on the work while that game was on! JD's block and run for a TD will be on highlight reels for awhile!I was in the shop about 9 hours today, and the place is trashed........ more of the same, but the end is near.

News on your past projects: Barry's 1967 GTX ran!!! We plumbed up the fuel injection, and then temporarily wired a few wires so it would run without a dash in the car: We had a Run/Stop switch and a starter momentary. She fired up first try and ran really well. We also put it in 1st, second and reverse and everything seemed to work well.
Now that most things requiring my lift are done, the car will be moved back to Barry's garage for the rest of the final assembly. Look for it at Carlisle next year!!!
(I took a video, but I don't have a YouTube account so just pretend you hear it running...)
That's good news Hawk, both for Barry and the engine builder!
Really Mark, Now I know how those dings got in Jeffs old hood.

I don't recall ever stepping forward....... perhaps everyone else just stepped back?

it's not impossible........ the car is rotisserie ready; the underside has already been scraped and blasted. just needs to be freshened up.
maybe I'll get into the dash next

Nice to see it with some paint on it. I know all the bodywork was done, but it seems like such a huge step forward.
Now step away from the watermelon and get back on the pumpkin!
