    So sloppy and inconsistent...lol. I'm going to have to try and duplicate that somehow. I'll probably have a few beers just before I spray it out and pretend my union break is in 2 minutes. Should look "factory" then!

    Heres the updated underhood shot. I took the regulator off and crayoned "34B" on the firewall.

    I was able to knock out the trunk refinishing. Took 4 nights of sanding and wire wheeling. Then a coat of primer, paint and 2 coats of AC Delco spatter paint. Came out pretty good

    But Brett is not nearly as tall as you are.

    Oh, is that how this works? Damn.

    He already had it in the basement "parts department" lol.
