its been such a long time but that time is finally here! I just got my car back from the shop - it still needs a wet sand and then clearcoat but for now I can start to put it together! It'll be awhile again before I get to work on her (being summer there is just so much to do!) But I should have this girl ready by spring! In the next couple weeks I'll probably end up doing some smaller things like painting the dash, welding the k frame ect. I'll keep you guys posted!

well summer is wrapping up, I only have autox days left this year, and a baby due any day now, I've been trying to get some renos done before the little one gets here, but I thought I'd show that I have started a little bit of work on the old gal, I've painted some pieces before it gold too cold outside with por-15

interior pieces I painted with VHT roll bar chassis black (satin), still the best paint out there:

I bought some of that B-Quiet (basically dynamat without the logo) goes on great! I've started on the roof and doors, I sealed the seams with the aluminum foil tape as well:

Then I put ontop an aluminum bubble wrap (foil on both sides) for added sound deadner and insulation seeing how it weighs nothing at all, I'm just using it it on the roof, doors, and firewall...
