well its done. at least the frame. it turned out ok although i had hoped for a little better. i could have used another two coats of slicksand to smooth it out a little more, but like the wife keeps saying, nobody is going to see the damn thing. i did have two areas i really wanted to nail; the outside of the rails that are seen under the rockers of the body, and the top of the rails in the engine compartment. id give the sides an 8 and the engine compartment about a 6. there is one area where the seam show a little on the tops of both engine compartment rails. again, another coat of slicksand would have cured it but i was over it. it looks good. overall it was much better than last time. i spent a lot more time with the blocking this time.

after painting all the parts tomorrow im going to take a couple weeks off from the car. i plan to get all my bolts and anything else thats now gold zinc together and get everything done in either black cad or black zinc. i should have it back together by the end of the month.

here are a couple pics.
