Yeah, OK!

BTW, thanks for the help with the directions in Boston yesterday! you helped out a LOT! made it right on time, too!


Today's progress: not too much done, but I wetsanded the fender sides (jambs) to prep for paint, and riveted the brackets I made for the front bumper to the bumper, so I can bolt the damn thing up to the fenders...
also, removed the sunroof panel from its tracks so i can cut and fit the CF skin to it tomorrow... Should be doing that and the roof CF skin and adhering it with 24 hour 2-part body panel epoxy. Hopefully I can get that done fairly easily, and then wetsand the door jambs...

if I get that done, more pics tomorrow! but I'm not expecting it!

Yeah!

Mine are Brand new Aussies, never seen daylight until that day!


I worked on a few small things today. I removed the steering wheel. And cut out the CF roof skins, BUT, it isn't as flexible as i hoped it would be!!!!
I ended up taking the one large piece for the roof, and cutting it on the driver and passenger sides so that it won't cause it to bubble up in those 2 spots... kinda sucked that I had to do that, but the stuff is SO thin that I'll be able to make a small seam where the 2 pieces meet, and it shouldn't look bad at all... I'll have to trim all the pieces too to make sure they fit tight along the roof edges, but it shouldn't be too bad.

Looks like its going to be at least 2 more weekends before we get it finished in paint. things are coming up for Casey as he is reinlisting into the national guard, and they have him doing all kinds of tests and stuff, so right now, I'm on his schedule, which is fine by me.

I took all the parts I want to powdercoat or sandblast apart and put them in boxes, and they are ready to go, whenever Roger is ready for them, no rush at all. Lots of stuff to do, though....

Possibly I'll adhere the 2 CF pieces to the roof and sunroof panel tomorrow afternoon, but I don't know if I'll have time... looks like it will be a Saturday/sunday project to me.

OK, cool... I have the roof pretty well prepped already, and I cut that piece into 2 pieces but it definitely needs a little more lining-up before sticking it on...

I could always cut a new piece, but I don't want to waste that last 4' by 4' !!

Re: Believe it!

Any plans for tomorrow? I'll swing over.

Otherwise I have a fun day of continuing to wetsand & polish my headlights & fogs and pull them apart to wire in new halos.
