thanks for the info guys and that goes for past posts from before also ....meaning someone told me not to have them use their primer so i didnt ...good move . what i did was i sent them my already purchased punched louver deck lid already primed in black epoxy primer inside and out so they also used my primer i sent them to spray the under inside of the deck lid before they mated the two halves so i didnt get rust inside and have to look at that , they also epoxy primed the underside of the flor for me before assemble . very helpfull.... the rest i had them keep bare steel so i can prime it myself and do any body work needed but let me tell you it looks almost flawless!!! still cant believe how nice it is ...i go in the garage and just stare , it is hard to start working ....lol . anyway i also had the deck former installed so it is alot stiffer but i have boxed steel to use for more reinforcing . my frame is very sturdy and really shouldnt flex the heck out of it too much . i look at some of the other frame manufactures and they look like they can twist a bit under hard accelleration easially . not saying my is the best and all are infeariour but i think i have a good starting point .. , anyone have cowl pics with the reinforcing??
