I didn't get the car back this week but I was able to pull the motor apart today. I'm going to run the block down to the machine shop tomorrow morning.

Sure is a lot of dirty work involved getting these the way you want them, but it will all be worth it. Keep up the good work!  :clapping:

At least that was the last of the dirty work. I am finally past the tearing apart stage. Everything from here on in will be putting it back together. That feels good.

I think I'm going to hold on to them for now. I have my eye on a 63 nearby. sorry.

Well I got the car back from paint today!!!!!!!!! Its red and shiny. Cant wait to colorsand now  :eek4:

Overall it looks really nice. I'm just dissapointed I missed a couple small dings here and there. Ohh well, maybe they wont be noticable after buffing and with all the trim. For my 1st attempt, I'd say I did ....fair. Maybe I'll upgrade that to pretty good after sanding :)

Here are a couple pics

The body should look just like that finished picture with the exception that mine will have a white interior and I am going with the stock steel wheels painted body color.

I got cracking on the aluminum trim yesterday night.

Here is a before and after picture. The original stuff is so oxidized it almost looks white. The 1st piece I did turned out so nice it looks like I had it chromed.

On my coronet; I just stripped the annodizing, sanded up to 400 grain and polished with mothers aluminum polish. I thought it turned out nice, but this time, I sanded up to 800 grit and then ran4 different grades of joulers rouge on it and then finished up with mothers.

One piece done...10 to go...  :grinno:

The picture doesn't do it much justice, I cant wait to see how it looks after brite dip  :thumbsup:
