been lazy as hell. forgot the dates but this is from my last post up till last sunday....
ABS lines and bracket getting painted
a shot of the engine bay finished with some stuff being put back on...
another engine bay pic..
Now i was debating what color i wanted to paint my suspension/ subframes... it was a debate btw blue and gold...
both looked bad as they were light.. so i tested it out over a black base coat.. much better!
Gas cap neck had some rust....
so i sand blasted the collar.... CLEAN!
some random parts installed back on... bracket thingys
power brake unit back in...
Gas tank.. assembling it back together with new hoses/painted parts (por15 )
installed
Painting rear and front subframe. wirebrushed/sand blasted majority of the rust and painted it with por15 to protect from furture rusting... then sprayed gold (technically rustoleum calls it antique brass)
then suspension sprayed with a black base coat.. some parts will remain black, others will be sprayed gold..
some parts going gold..
Cleanning up the tranny round 1... havent decided what i want to do yet. either paint it gold or white and get friends to graffiti on it...
andddddddddd installed!
subframe is installed and bolted in for enough support, toe links? are just hand tightened on... everything will be secured once in place and once i get the impact gun.....
ohhhh and i have a dashboard!!!
por15 takes some time to dry so never got to do the underside of the front subframe... in the process of por15'ing the other side...
will be sprayed gold and installed back on this weekend!
and lastly cleaning up the diff.. wired brushed loose rust and por15'd.
still need to do a little cleaning and touch up to the diff.
bushing install has been on hold... i got the press but i dont have enough steel plates to angle the suspension parts in the correct direction to pop them out.. will have to find a machine shop that will sell me 1x1x12 square pieces of steel tube...
weekend goals..
