Last update for now was from today! Felt like Christmas day!
:ups:
Hard to believe it all fits in this small box. Weighed under 30lb!

Seems well packaged!

Turbos look NICE! They're SMALL but I guess the cars I've been around are either big singles or HUGE power cars...These are baby turbos!

That thing looks super cool,
Do they use special type welding rod on items that get anodized ?
Thinking anodizing my set up as well it's just too much bling.,

To be honest I'm no expert in that field. I know Autorad doesn't do anodizing anymore. I'll have it done locally.

Dang so. You are all in and I'm happy for you.

Car is on the lift, rearend pulled back out of it for underside painting/coating. Hoping to get that done this week and get the rear pulled apart to replace the gears (4.10s to be replaced with 3.50s).

Get that all done and spec the rear wheels.

Excited to get this going and make some progress. I'll get pictures up soon!

Well according to GAP my radiator/intercooler setup shipped so looking forward to receiving that in the near future (was scheduled for 4/21 so little ahead).

Went to GAP the past few days to work on the car a bit and get the bottom finished up. We pulled the rearend out and set it aside so we had good access to the bottom of the car.

I went to prepping any areas showing surface rust and knocking down any high points in the patch panels that had been done. All looking good now!

We went from this:

Back down on the ground on the roller wheels, waiting to test fit some nice wheels. May order wheels at the end of this week/beginning of next.

:thumbsup: Little by little, it's moving in the right direction. It's looking really good.
What did you guys shoot the bottom with?
