Sorry been busy. I got it from Jegs for like $99. Was a simple install... Should have some new pics up soon....

BTW CLR works great to restore old bolts, unuts etc and is cheaper than buying new. Takes about 1 day to work though... uhg!

Cheers!

*22 point roll cage in the works
*Smoothing everything on the body

Man yours look REAL nice compared to mine! Anyways I used Nason Full Thane Urethane, DPT99, Color Code: Black. Use 441-21 reducer, 483-15 catalyst. At least that's what they sold me... It comes with the ratios on it. It looks real nice and goes on VERY easy even with my extra crappy cheap arse sprayer though it is good to have a pressure valve to avoid overspray.

If your close, make sure to take the frame off and replace those bolts and bushings, mine were almost gone! I used poly ones from PS

Drop me a line if you want more info...

Thanks....hopefully soon I can have the inside painted. Looked at the Viper Blue but I thought it to be a little on the light side so I went with a Honda blue er something that was a bit darker. Should look good with the tan interior and silver decals bird etc. If my life would keep getting in the way it would go faster!

Chris

Have you taken care of that rear quarter rust? Its not very much fun! I can tell ya there are easier ways than I did but hey its all an adventure! Drop me an email and we can discuss.

BTW I got the interior metal painted this weekend. Now I can paint some interior pieces to get the emer brake assembly reinstalled, get all of the AC stuff reinstalled. The motor is on hold now that Summit tells me that my crower lifters are on mega back order. Sheesh! Oh well not like I was going to be driving around any time soon anyways but... Chk yas 18rs
