Great progress and I am happy to see you were able to fix the paint.

And that stripe concept is awesome

Thank buddy!!
I'm not totally in love with it, but I can live with it. Just something a little different than the norm. When the sun hits the paint they almost completely disappear.
I still have to sand the clear flat, and re-clear it when spring comes back around. I have a few runs and some orange peel to take care of.

Got her out of the booth and into the shop before the weather got too cold. I'm getting too old for this

Reassembly begins. I did have to pull the whole subframe out and repaint it along with all the suspension pieces. Everything got messed up during the bodywork and paint process and also from when I moved to WA from AZ, since it was the middle of winter and there was salt on the roads.

Thanks Marty!! Yeah, I'm still diggin the color too.

Now I need to remove all the rear suspension pieces and get them cleaned up and re-painted, but that will have to wait till the weather warms up.
In the meantime I'll try to get the brake and fuel lines made up and installed. I need to figure out my fuel pump scenario. I'll be running a TT 6.0L, maybe around 700 WHP. I think two 535's should work ok, but I need to do more research on that. I have a Rick's Restomod tank, so I could put 3 pumps in if needed.
