Default Battery Box done

Just want to thank one and all for the help with my questions last week. The box came out Ok for my first shot at glass work. I put on a light coat of Evercoat #27 body filler and sanded it smooth.Used POR15 chassis paint to blend it in. Even got the PB cables,gas tank,and differential installed yesterday.
:cheers:
Gary

Glad to hear you're done!!! After the 1st couple of times glass isn't too bad, just messy.

My comment on pics was just a general request for you to post 1 or 2 down the road for us. I tend to view the forum as a friendly neighborhood where we're all working on our cars and we can pop in and out of each others garages whenever . . . When you see planned communities, a car community would be very cool. You could buy the corner lot on Vette drive where it intersects with Mopar Way. :lol: :lol:

I took a couple of pictures of the work but don't have access to posting here. I could scan them and have someone post them for me. The work was as you said messy but something I would do again-hopefull not a confined area like the box! I did heve everything out but it was still a hassle working on.

Send the pics to me at my e-mail address and I will post. Keep them to about 550x3xx pixels.
