Hey Dave, I’m curious about 5/1600 gear ratios. Trying to decide what to buy. Sound like I need Weddle everything. 5.37 r&p with 30” tires 5.47 with 33” tires? What do you like?

The repair came out awesome. I’m going around touching up chips and scratches with the leftover paint.

I unboxed all of the Elephant Racing suspension today. Sweet.

Por15 wasn’t dry enough for paint yesterday. I did more clean-up while it dried. Masked and epoxy sealer just now. Paint later.

Yeah, we have some Ciebe lights to mount on the hood. I think we’re painting the bottom of the hood red or black?

A bunch of unmasking and overspray clean up today…then got involved with the rear window rust. Decided to tackle this now. Cleaned the old paint and rust, then applied por15. I will prep and paint white over tomorrow.

Sweet!

We’ve been helping on John’s race car the last couple days. Back on this, paint prep on Thursday!

Nice.

Have you considered flexible brake hoses for the turning brake? So that you can drop it out of the way when the parcel tray needs to be removed for electrical maintenance.

62 (I think) and earlier walk-thru seats are different widths. These look like 63-67.

We welded in some luggage hooks under the seats, cleaned welds, and gave it a good wash today. Paint next week.
