That is AWESOME to see how much good, unfilled, metal you have on you car! You should blow that photo up to poster size and frame it for your garage.

The race to finish is still on Dan - but you having it at a shop is giving you an edge - although NOW I'm REALLY motivated!!! Think we're still on-target to meet up (with our Zeds) in Lloyd next summer??!

Oh yah we are still on, but I might not be still living in Alberta by then, just a longer drive for me.

Of course we could just trade photo's here too - and if you're moving to PEI I definitely won't hold you to it!! !!

Car is going to final paint next week, working on the motor. Some parts ready to go back on.

Dan is the valve cover painted or is that bead blasted? Either way is it beautiful.

Both, it was glass bead blasted then etching primer and painted with high temp alum paint.

Motor is mostly done, a bunch of nuts and bolts to finish plating. Not quite to Diseazd's standards but I am happy with it.

It's looking really nice!

Looks fab!

Looks amazing - I'm jealous of your ability.

Are you planning to keep running the old metal fan?

Not sure, I do have a plastic one as well. As with everything else there seems to be conflicting opinions as to is better.

While on a road trip, stopped by the autobody shop to check on the car progress. Coming along nicely. He told me it would take about a month when I gave him the car in the middle of May. Everyone warned me he would take much longer than what he estimated, but the work would be very good. Looks like them were correct on both counts.

Looks ready now!
