Everything comes apart so easily on this car. Hopefully it will all go back together as easily.

Haven't updated for a while as there has not been too much exciting happening. Just lots of time in the blasting cabinet and taking things in for fresh powder coating and zinc plating. Until today. I picked up the exhaust from the ceramic coater and they turned out awesome.

After the Kent in the body shop told me that none of the tubings that you can get to cover the wiring harness tabs on the body are correct like the factory ones coming off. We decided to make the tubing to match the appearance of the factory ones with the correct shine. I got the chance to put them on the car and I really like how they went on and looked. They slide right on but have just enough grab to them to stay on well.

Cleaned up the head light assemblies and found a pretty cool light that Bruse Stone said was pretty rare.
