Looks very nice. Next time try wrapping the sand paper around about half of a good flat pnt stir stick, and water sand the top of the run until it's flat. Works well.

Schoney I used that trick also on a single run I had. It worked very well.

Tommy,
I am working on detailing my leaf springs. Then I am going to get the rearend in the car so I can paint the fire wall. Then hopefully get the subframe installed. But the last few weeks I have been busy with softball/baseball games with my kids. We also finally got a nice stretch of weather in the northeast so my outside chores, kids and work have consummed most of my time.

I would love to have the car finished for this summer but my goal is to have it running by this fall and finish the car over the winter. You just can't rush these projects.

I got the rear end installed today and painted the firewall. The sub-frame will be installed tomorrow.
