Maybe we can get you down there with Jon for 14.

KC painted bumpers this weekend. Woo Hoo!

That's a great color. S bumper looks great. is that the new water based paint? Single stage or 2 stage? Any details appreciated...Wanna watch this reassembled. Can't wait...Thx.

What a great color! I joined the forum after Warren moved on, but have the utmost respect and admiration for him and I'm sure he's looking down and smiling, and looking forward to being your co-pilot soon.

Thanks! Paint is Valspar 2 stage solvent based. KC hasn't converted to water paint yet.

Mark, when will you tell us about the electrical system? I'd think Warren's car would be perfect electrically...

[jpnovak]

I love the torsion bar cover support pillars.

Looking good Mark.

Randy - The electrics seem to be in good condition for a car of this age with low miles...but nothing special. The best we can tell, Warren's declining health and spells of CF kept him sidelined and out of the garage for a lot of years before his passing. Annie was in pretty bad disrepair when we picked her up. I'll clean up the electrical connections as I plug things back in.

[RWebb]

Thx for that info - I guess you can use the "Warren approved" cleanup methods...


BTW - I don't recall if he ever mentioned this, but I've taken to hosing all connections down with DeOxIt after I clean and flush them

[bcoats]

Just Awesome!!!

I may have missed it, but is this paint shop that Gas Monkey uses?

Car looks amazing BTW!

Yes - KC works full time at GMG. He has a shop south of Ft Worth where he does special projects on the side.

Thanks for the tip - I'll try that.

Right across Northwest Hwy from you. Less than a mile! We must both shop at Kroger.

I'm right off Lake Highlands drive and Fernald.

Annie is coming home tomorrow - KC is doing some last buffing tonight. Can't want to see her....

[Raynald]

I'am sure !
Warren love it !
Nice Job Mark !

Mark, one tip - the paint can stay "soft" for weeks, so don't be in any hurry to install trim. Check with the painter as the type of paint & temperature can affect this.

Absolutely drop dead GORGEOUS!
