I have a small sand blaster! That's a good idea!

ps: How did you prep the primer after the sandblasting? Finer grade sand?

I bought and installed a new front suspension from Carl earlier this year

He was very helpful and it came over right on time as planned

Nice stuff, installed easily

Looks killer!!

I have instagram for my online portfolio at work- I should start a garage profile if it does image hosting like photobucket used to.

I go back and forth on how to do engine bays. Sometimes I want to hide and smooth stuff but usually I end up going for simple and easy to work on. It’s crazy how much work it is to make it look super clean and sanitary. I’m sure yours will be top notch judging by the work so far.

I'll have pre/post weight when I get finished. However, I'm going from a cast wedge with aluminum heads to a aluminum block hemi.

I cracked a front wheel and unfortunately American Racing no longer makes the Pro series. I don't remember who posted the link, but so far I like these Champion Wheels a lot more than anything I've owned in the past!
