well the front suspension is almost back on, and i am finally getting around to rebuilding the power steering. I took Beaver cleaner to the engine bay and under carriage, which got it looking nice again. And yes Beaver cleaner is a real products. foaming degreaser http://www.beaverresearch.com/index.html

Anyway, tomorrow the gas tank is coming out, any tips from people who have done that before?

Man, that makes me smile! When I was single, I had my 92 GSXR907 motorcycle parked in my kitchen all winter while I detailed it...

My Wife (now) doesn't realize the number of vette parts that have parked themselves all over the house while I worked on them

Looks nice
