Had to step away from the garage for a bit. Did some more work on the wiring panel.

Since my last post on this, I've installed heat in my garage, and I'm loving it! Been plugging away, and got the trunk and passenger area to a point I was able to spray primer. Little by little, it is moving along.

Garage heat is a big deal. I have radiant floor heat in my shop and I love it. I used to work in an unheated shop and my productivity during the winter was close to zero. Now I can head out there in the morning and work all day.

All that shiny new metal you put in there is almost too pretty to cover up. primer

Winter heat is good in Minnesota for sure!

Several years ago I got an Mitsubishi Mini Split for my small shop. Heats in winter and cools in summer. I really like it.

Back on topic, cool car, its going to be fun to follow this build.

heat is good for 99% of all people, but my MS makes it miserable, because at the least effort, i sweat so much it looks like i just got out of the shower ! that includes working in 30 something temps with just a t-shirt ! as long as i'm inside, no heat is required, although painting is impossible, and my best friend has to show up in his snowmobile suite with a nose warmer and mittens. when i'm at his shop, i'm into a sleeveless shirt with the buttons opened. only reason i don't go shirtless, is i would offend his wife and dog. then he tells me i stink. eek some friend he is ! biggrin

.... a little quiet in here. I suspect Jeff has suspended all progress as he's making plans for the lighting of the Grain Belt Beer sign in Minneapolis coming up in a few weeks laugh2

I've been working on the car, just nothing shows up in pictures as progress. The undercarriage is about 75% ready for primer. I got tired of looking at it, and started to clean up the engine and painted that. Still have to get rid of the chrome timing cover for a plain steel one, swap oil pans, install a new ATI dampener, mill the INDY logo off the valve covers, and reinstall the intake.

It all needs to be done, so I look at it as progress, as long as I'm working on something for the car.

It's been 1 month since we got a progress picture. I think you're starting to slack off. drinking Tick, tick, tick...

How about a teaser shot of the engine? Other then going to PRI, I've been working on the car every day.

I had a good friend/ coworker mill the INDY logo off my valve covers yesterday. I just have a few things to finish on the engine and then I'll get back to the body work.
