Update........

I still haven't done jack on the engine. Been working 70+ Hours a week. I haven't had a day off since late December.
 
That looks great Louis. Glad to hear that you finally have a little free time. I usually work 6 days a week and pick up as much overtime as possible, so I kind of know how you feel. Keep plugging away buddy, your build is awesome.
 
The Stock Color, I think it is called Silver Poly, I also like Bright Silver Metallic. The interior will also stay Red.

I just painted my truck in two tone. This is carbon fiber metallic. I love it. It looks like a mirror in the sun. This is just the first cut. I wet sanded the door and cut it again since this pic, so it is even better now.

Damn did you paint it yourself? You got some MAD SKILLS!
I like that color Carbon Fiber Metallic! Looks flippin awesome!
 
I know the feeling of no time, but even 15 min of work will add up and it gets you just a little closer to completion. And at least it's moving forward. I have been trying to make time for my cage and have only managed to get one tube in place in about two months. So I know how you feel. I wanted my cage done in feb.

Exactly...if you do something every day no matter how miniscule, your that much closer to being done and it keeps you motivated.

These builds can get a bit long in the tooth and overwhelming with everything else going on in our lives.

Looking good....keep on chipping away.:thumbrig:

Did another 30 Minutes today.......Chipping away at it.
My goal is to get the oil pan off the MOCK engine so I can weld it back up and install it on the REAL engine.
 
good deal man you have 45 min more work time than I have had this week. I'm sitting at 0. Looks like most of my car time is going to be taken up this weekend installing a nitrous system on a dodge ram. I'm hopeing to get at least a solid 6 hours in on my car though. But I doubt it will happen.
 
There is a paint for redoing the cad plated look on Holley carbs that should be real close to that finish. I know Eastwood sells it but there should be others. Keeping watch on your progress and it's looking real good Louis.

P.S. I have my "MadDart" 4 link all tacked in and am playing with final settings before finish welding. It's sweet looking with those big ol honking bars and rod ends.
