We took the engine apart today and I can't believe how clean it is.






I also epoxy primed the fender aprons and block sanded them. I found a few low spots so I added a little more filler than block it out.

Lot of taping to paint the dash





Dashboard is now black



Installed the rear seat and new rear speakers



To keep the engine compartment clean we are running the wires outside the fender aprons. Brian drilled a couple of holes to hold the clamps and than used plastic clips that will be under the fender so you won't see anything.
