      2nd coat Epoxy Primer

      Gus its nice to hear that ridetech is taking care of you, I like their stuff and would use it on my next car.

      I have been sanding away and was able to get more SPI epoxy primer on the car. Now for another coat of high build 2K primer, more sanding, sealer then a SPI flat black single stage.

      I agree. Once the cause of the problem was figured out, no hesitation in fabbing me up a new set of SA's. I would guess many companies would say "they should fit, so make 'em!" Latest update is the SA's have been built and off to powdercoaters. Hoping to see them soon.

      I am trying to follow your "get 'er done" mind set and working on mounting the rear shockwave bracketry and shockwaves today. Much easier than the fronts which require opening up of the spring pockets to prevent rubbing. Just drill some holes in the 12 bolt's shock brackets and bolt 'em up.

      Your goat sure looks mean in black! And that wheel/tire combo is still top shelf. Thanks for the update and pics. Great to see you are really moving along.. Your efforts are REALLY paying off.

      Beautiful day today for you and me.... low humidity and upper 70's for me, mid or low 70's for you since your so far north of Beantown I would guess. Enjoy the day Eric.

      Almost finished sanding

      Thanks Gus,
      Lots of sanding over the last week!
      Block sanded the epoxy primer with 220 on the high spots and 320 everywhere else.
      Another coat of High Build 2K that I sanded the top off with my DA and 150, then block sanded with 150 to get level.
      One last coat of epoxy as a sealer that I block sanded with 320.
      Now ready to mask off and spray some 2K primer / sealer.
