I would but it might omit me out of the "survivor" car status!  :roflsmiley:  :smilielol:  :poopoke:

Most of my parts are original, even the rot!  :faint:

Everyone else.. the black coating on the rotors is to prevent rusting on the non-contact surfaces and keep them looking nice... the pad surface should wear off with the first use. Yes.. I have to use the green bearings.

Will that work  :dunno: :clueless:

What kind of paint?

Its a good ideal... :2thumbs:

According to Wilwood:
"Every SRP rotor is treated with a black E-coating to reduce corrosion on the areas of the rotor not kept clean by pad contact."

I know.. LOL... I thought long and hard before I posted that! It is in the final assembly spot though.. and the interior is nearly complete... just have to button the drive train up. I am going to trailer it back.. my brother has an enclosed trailer so I think I will use that.

p.s.. still waiting to get a ride in your car!  :poopoke:

Are you going to start it at the shop?  If so, when?

Perhaps when you get it running we can take both cars out for a ride and get some pics like Super Blue says  :2thumbs:

 :clueless: Didn't even realize how close you guys were, both in Texas!  I was thinking just a thread posting pics of both of your cars.

Would look very bad azz seeing both your cars cruising around together!  :grinyes:
