        well I'm hoping to have it on the road in a month or so just have to wait for the weather to get a little warmer so i can paint it. as for starting i need to order oil cooler parts still. after i do that i can put the intake on and start the car up.

        Im pumped to see this thing run again

          i used a wire wheel on a drill to get loose stuff off and clean rust. then i use denatured alcohol mixed with some water like 2/3 alcohol 1/3rd water in a spray bottle and wipe it with a rag.

                finished rubber coating so i can put the subframe in. i hate the rubber coat it sticks to everything and it smells very bad.

                              That painted subframe and undercoating looks real good! I think I would have kept the diff cover silver but it looks great nonetheless

                                  paint it white, that's the thing around here.
