That looks great, I think coating the bottom is the way to go.

Great prep-work and a beautiful finish !

Plz wear gloves and a mask - and never wash your hands with gas, solvents, etc ... Unless you specifically want 3 eared kids 'cause they can hear better ... :lol:

No wonder I have three ears, my dad was the one who mention the solvents and gas :willy: Is there anything else out there that I could use on my hands?

Well I just got my rearend, subframe, 4 link bars, spindles, and center link back from the powder coaters. I am very impressed with the quality, I really like it since it was free. I am also finished seam sealing the interior floorpans. I will probably start assembling the front end and spray the interior floors with the Raptor liner at the start of next week. Here are some pics sorry the new coated parts are still dusty. I went with a semi gloss black.

Looks great! No roll bar?

Through out this whole build that has been the big question, if I do the door bars and back bar will have swing outs. This is going to be more of a show/cruiser/maybe 2x a yr down the 1/4 mile track kind of a car.

What are the two square tubes hanging down from the x-member, sway bar mounts? Trying to figure out it out...

Fuel cell mounting bars with studs, the fuel sits up in the trunk pan. I didn't want the cell inside the trunk pan or hanging down real low.

here is a pic standing back looking at it. I am going to trim the studs a little bit more (1" or so) once everything is back in.
