Thanks Donnie, we have all the weather strip for the car.

The owner wanted the Red Oxide primer.....I may be bias, but it looks wonderful. Just wait and see
how good it will look when the rest of the goody parts are installed under that chassis [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Dan, if your going for a factory looking paint job the rockers should be painted black.

Donnie,

Some parts will be factory, some parts Not so factory.....this build is for a passionate owner wanting his own interpretation of a &quot;Day2&quot; build. As Frank sang, &quot;I did it my way&quot; [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cool.gif[/img]

As always Donnie....thanks for your suggestions.
