Drivers fender was a nightmare, but all's well that ends well...
Didn't think it was getting there for a while. Lol. a FEW issues, but we worked through them. Hoppy said how it's cool that we keep doing stuff for each other and no money changes hands. Well if there is an invisible IOU between us, I am currently the one who owes. LOL.
Turning the Hoppy shop into a paint booth was no easy task. Ray did a first round of cleaning before I even got the car there. Then we moved everything around a couple more times through the cleaning and reorganizing. Swept it out. I brought my leaf blower up and when through it a few times. We hung plastic around the spray area. Ray was on it with the mixing station..
@PosiRon and his merry men showed up to drink beer and get in the w...I mean check out the progress. LOL 
(thanks for getting pics Ron!)

Looks like it. That's also a '63 Impala in the garage behind it.
Glad it was not blue paint I would have been confused and be dead by now.

Hey guys, I got introduced to a Maryland tradition today. Fun but a lot of work for not much meat.
You could have saved time if you only moved things around ONCE instead of a COUPLE times...

They were good...we had 5 dozen, more than what you see on the table. My boss is in the photo, he knew how to order them, in two batches so they wouldn't get cold before we could eat them.
Dam David you just made my night with the innocent post THAT WILL keep on giving!

I popped the rotors off to do a little painting and what did i see? Chinese bearings and very little grease. Looks to me like another lesson learned. Does the USA make anything anymore. or is it all out sourced?
Now I have to question the whole kit's quality....

Shame on them...
Mark I usually go to a bearing place and order Timken's.

If you go to the right hooker, they're free.... (Or part of the deal...)
