<span style="font-size: 17pt"><span style="font-style: italic"> <span style="color: #3333FF">Speed parts start going on the car this weekend. </span></span>

<span style="color: #FF0000">The Roofs ran a one piece Lakewood Scattershield - very heavy....</span></span>



<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-size: 17pt">Parade rest. Decent shape but will require some &quot;body work&quot;...</span></span>



<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-size: 17pt"> Old Lakewood scattershields used a 4 digit number. Current ones use a 5 digit part number (#15000 for BBC &amp; SBCs) which I have not seen stamped on the new housings. Howz the broaching look? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] </span></span>


<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-size: 17pt"> Priming and filling in the imperfections... </span></span>


<span style="color: #FF0000"><span style="font-size: 17pt">Pantone 485C was mixed by the paint store and will go on this weekend after I finish the body work. I am surprised how much orange is in this color. According to Lakewood technical support (responsive via email [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]) , Pantone 485C was the color indicated on the original drawings for this bell housing. Thanks to DC for helping to decipher color codes [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img] .</span></span>
