Took of the Light motors of a 75, and made em' look nice. I was really disappointed the black rubber covers off the later cars didnt fit (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Looks really good in the sun. I think it's a different Orange than Sig. Orange though?

For that drive, I'm thinking LA to SD along the coast?

Thanks Gint!

I have a dash.... kinda. Sorry for the crappy photos, I took them with my iPhone while doing the dash.

I decided to not use foam under the cover, because I want it to look a bit sharper, rather than 'cushy'.

Had to sand out a few bumps.

Last pics for tonight. I have some from underneath that you will see tomorrow, and we will also see how it looks once it has dried and in the sunlight.

Also, did the inside of the rear hood a few days ago, not the best pic, because the tape is still on the orange....

Dyna-Pro by Dynatron, #544.

I love it really, and it really helps to deaden sound. However, I'm still considering using Dynamat as well

Just now I opened up the doors, and sprayed some undercoating in there. I really want to avoid rust, and not worry about driving the car in the rain. Also, I think this plus some dynamat, will be good steps towards making it quite.

I took some pictures, but of course, the iPhone died... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Basically, since I have the later reinforced doors, it's undercoating from the bars down.

So today, we took a break from the car and did a coast run in the 355, awesome.

Afterwards, we dug out the 5 lug trailing arms. Those are going on tomorrow. Also, pulled the sheet metal out, and that will be going to powder coat on Monday.

Ok! So I got the pictures from my iPhone!

These are from yesterday. As you probably know after reading, I updated the doors to 75's because they are reinforced. These pictures are of us spraying undercoating inside the doors. I was going to do them on the inner door, but then I would have trouble putting on the handles. I think I'm going to do Dynamat too.
