Little update,,, Firewall prep is complete and ready for paint and the car is sanded awaiting last layer of epoxy high build and block sanding.. We're getting to that point where the excitement really grabs you to put the paint to the build... She's looking real straight in real life (sometimes the photos pick up subtle differences in huges that look like a wave,, but trust me there is not)...

Just a quick update,,, the Cherokee Soldier has been block for the last time prior to paint and I head to Buffalo tomorrow to pick up a few parts.. The car looks real straight and I'm hoping to splash colour on it Saturday or Sunday all things equal...

We also sprayed a test section of paint on the cowl and I hope this plays here:

Well the work continues and the parts just keep showing up.... Our good friends over at BFG made sure this is going to be one sweet ride and Tony got busy real fast installing and balancing the rubber..




Nose and lower valance is on,, and the body is pretty much ready for paint (got a couple of little finishing touches first) so colour this week I hope gang....

The hood has been assembled and we'll trim it tomorrow and the fender vents are in as well..





Next stop the paint booth.....

Well life has thrown a few curves at us and we've have to move out of sink a little but the colour is finally getting layed down on the accessories and body hopefully tonight... It's cold enough to freeze the nuts off a brass monkey up here but we're forging ahead...

Here are a shot of the initial dusting of colour




followed by a few more coats less clear


and finally with a little clear to seal things up so we can tape off and paint the stripes








Look at how the lights plays on this colour,, we're freaking out up here and loving it....
