Yup. This is my second 1st gen 'Bird. I thought I posted my original one, but I guess not, so here it is. I miss what a solid car that was. Didn't have to deal with all this damn rust!

Just picked up an Anvil CF spoiler!
Looking forward to it getting here. I hope this is the first of many CF parts. I would like to have CF trunk, hood, front spoiler, and inner fenders, but we will see. The hood is the big question mark as I'm not sure Anvil plans to make it anymore. We'll see.

Metalworking is going slow because it's too damn cold in the garage. Just accumulating parts it seems. Next up is rear suspension. Speedtech complete with 9". Should order in late Feb / early March. Hopefully by that time it's warm enough to pick up the pace in the garage.

Stay tuned.

Hey Aaron, I may or may not be here. Work travel is picking up again. If not, I'll be up in Lapeer every other week or so anyway.

Hope you're ready for the snow!

So I think I found a solution to get my car blasted and primed. I found a company that will pick up, blast, prime, and drop off my car for around $1200-1300. Not bad. Half the price of chemical strip and e-coat.

Anyone recommend a primer to use after blasting? They proposed Kem Kromic as a mid-grade primer. This is just really for the inner structure as I really just want something tough and that will seal well.
