Fantastic progress....that car is really coming along !  :2thumbs:

One comment on your engine ; make sure to install a PCV & breather or you will be blowing out seals. The engine needs some ventilation or it will build up internal pressure and cause problems. Just a "heads up" for ya !


Keep up the good work !   :coolgleamA:

Man! that looks sweet. you will be driving her in no time. Question, where did you get the rad and fan assy? looks like a real nice setup.



Back,

The Rad is from Griffin, it fits perfectly... the shroud is a OEM shroud for a 26" rad, the fan is a 7 blade stainless steel that's razor sharp!  (I forgot the manufacturer tho  :rotz:)

Yeah I talked to the paint guy and he started laughing... saying "I didn't come this far to F it up"... Blending tape will be used on the doors etc

>>>>>>>>> Thats the same answer I would give too  :icon_smile_big:  yeah those little edge blending tape bending machines are pretty cool. it is amazing though how many painters still don't use them and use that horrible foam tape. I am sure it will turn out very nice , I had a coronet that color, one of my favorites for sure.

***UPDATE*** Well it's still not painted... during the wet sanding they guys noticed that there were some slight imperfections in the body and they went to work on the roof and the fenders to make sure they were they are all as close to perfection as possible.  I was by the shop yesterday and saw the car in it's final, final prep work before paint... I was assured that it will be in the booth this week... So new pics are forthcoming!
