Yassuh, Ronster, you already be liberally applyin' that silver paint. Guess this ain't gonna be no NCRS concours resto here, Nahsuh.

Ronster, you should at least getcha some of that gold dichromate paint for that wiper door actuator; and the master cylinder is easy, it should be a low gloss black, and the latches, dark gray phosphate (you can get fake phosphate in a can)...Da judges really take a dim view of stuff painted the wrong color. :jester :jester

Hah...deleted your progress picture too late. We saw what youra' doin'! :jester

Everything under der is either natural or cleared. I would really like to blow all kinds of money on it but..... have to leave something for the next guy. :lol Specially cause I ripped the diff apart yesterday and the side yolks were worn down to the snap rings. I intend to make a nice safe driver out of it, unless one of you guys want to own it :D then we can twalk bout correct.
