Wow - that looks amazing. I would not have imagined it to turn out as well as it did based on what it appears you are starting with. That subframe looks new!

Idk if the sub has been painted or not. I'd guessed that it has but I will find out upon removal.

It's a labor of love! Especially while the car is on jack stands. Lookin' good bro.

I can't believe the transformation that I am seeing. Great job on a really sound car. I wish you had my old W30 car to work your magic on, it would have been unreal.
What did you use on the bolts?

Thanks. There’s always the possibility of me reopening RGR (Red Gorilla Restorations). Well maybe I should call it RGP (Red Gorilla Preservations). I’m kidding.. As for the bolts, just the usual clean with citrus degreaser, evaporust and then I soak them with a silicone lubricant by PB Blaster.

A little more progress over the last 2 nights.. Almost have the center section of the tub getting close. Hope to dedicate some time over the weekend on some more cleaning.

Looks great!!!

Great work Darrell as always....

I took some time away from laying on my back and cleaning and pulled the front clip off the car. Also shot a quickie video of ole green while I let her warm up this morning. Memories of my father flood back to me every single time I hit the key.
