well got some updates.....
this week is paint week, started painting some odd ends and such so far. the plan is to have the full chassis painted this weekend, and next week finish up some things under the car and undercoat it so the susp. can go back on after i paint it. also found out some depressing news on sat..... did a leak down test and found cyl. 2 was 25psi down from the rest that were at 145psi which im pretty sure is 40psi down from 2years ago.... so needless to say the motor has to be tore down and checked over, so it can be rebuilt bigger and better.
anyways a few pics

I love how this build paint alone is better than 99% of the total builds here.

Did you do the leak down test dry, or did you squirt some oil down the spark plug holes? In either case, send it on up and I'll freshin it up for you.

Did you glue the roof back on or did you weld it and finish off all those welds. Lots of work for something most people won't see anyways. Looks great.
