Glad to know you're back working on the car again, True. Really sorry for your losses and tough time but good to know you made it through.

Picked up the Lateral Dynamics bits from the powder coater this afternoon and there's a big pile of boxes stacked in the garage.

Actual work...coming soon!

Still working on the sheet metal that encloses the area above the LD 3-link. Spent the better part of the afternoon cutting poster-board templates and whittling bits of new sheet metal to fit hunks of old, pink sheet metal.

Nowhere near done.

I'm certain that someone of greater skill than myself would have this segment whipped in a day but I'm still having fun doing it myself.

I've fabricated a solution to the above and hope to weld it in place on Sunday. Once complete, that will wrap up the chassis fabrication work that I will be doing myself (the cage will be done by a pro).

So...to the matter of protecting this hard fought tin work; Does one seam-seal before or after putting some primer on the bare metal?

Seam sealer is water based and its best to put on over etching primer. Can't wait to see the cage work.
