Thanks Kurt. I'm going to have as much fun as I can doing the fab on this one. A roadster is gonna be soooo much easier. No heat, no AC, no power windows, no suicide door latches.
Got the rear drums, front rotors, ladder bars, panhard bar & brake pushrod painted this morning, and as I'm typing this realized that I forgot to pull the pedal

I still have to get the differential re-painted black, but my guy didn't get the new gears in the third member Friday as he'd promised, and I want to do it all as a unit instead of masking everything so I'll do it Monday/Tuesday, and do the brake pedal them, too.Also have the tranny to do, but it's sprayed with a gray cast iron finish with no primer so I need to do an acetone wash on it, and maybe some grinding on rough spots first, and I may wait until I've done the test fit to see what the tranny cross member needs to mate to the 700R4.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
".......So sanded it all down and resprayed. ......" Been there. done that on a couple of paint jobs over the years. Usually took me a couple of days to get over being mad before I started...
