Gerahead's 71 Dart
I can't believe that I have been away this long. Not much progress to update. I got the quarterpanel trimmed so that I could start fitting it up before I tack the floor extension into place. It fits really well around the the wheel house and rocker, but the edge where it wraps around the trunk panel seems to be too long? I'll have to look into that further. I had mapped out a plan to plumb hard pipe into my garage for airlines to the compressor quite a while back. I have had the pipe laying along side my garage for quite a while too. I got the pipe scuffed and painted to try to slow down the rust. Two weeks back a good buddy of mine came over to help with the pipe install. He has hooked me up with all the materials as well. He has all the tools to easily cut and thread pipe, so that part of the job was way simpler. I now have drops at the compressor and both ends of the shop so I shouldn't have to be draggin hoses all over the place and should dramatically reduce the water in the system. Now I just need to acquire the additional regulator and fittings and I will be all set. I should be able to get some quality time out in the shelter this weekend. We had to do the pipe installation while working around all the contents of the garage so first order of business will be to do a littel sweeping where stuff was hauled away from the walls and put everything back!
