So, I didn't want the Black Car to feel totally neglected. Tom has been at work on it and has it totally stripped down and should be close to having it mounted on the rotisserie. The blaster is next and I think we are both cringing at what he will find. Those pictures may never see print. Here at the garage I got the driveshaft stripes finished up. I followed 165th's guide and started them 13.5" from the front of the tube, made them approximately 3/4" in width, and spaced them 1/4" apart. I used Quantas marking paint it looks pretty good. I am not going to paint the driveshaft itself. It will be left bare steel and treated with RPM. I look forward to seeing the appeance of it with no paint.
