Ok ,well ,I just got done scratching down my firewall to make it somewhat smooth. After i paint the car ima paint under the hood and the firewall gloss black and then shoot it with the Chrome Alclad 2 Lacquer paint, but idk yet im still deciding, i will see what it looks liek first all in gloss black in the engine compartment . I also swapped engines I cant go any bigger than the chrysler 440 becuase I would have to do some firewall work and then i would have to do the inner fenderwalls u know liek where the battery sits i would have to cut some away. The engine is kinda tight in there now so there is no room at all i have no exhaust or shock in the rear. they both got in the way of me lowering my suspension. I'm gonna do sidepipes on the car in place o fthe stock exhaust. i also have another body similar to the one i'm buildin now it was my dads so ima be swaping bodys too i will show u it when i take more pictures. i know ur all anxious to see but its been a busy week with graduation parties and me and my family gettin stuff ready for my graduation party tom. so i will get pics asap. i'm sorry for the delay and believe me the car looks nothin like the pic of all the putty work anymore. i plan on gettin it in primer today as soon as some putty dries and then i can sand it.
