A bit of progress and a small change of direction. I decided to not powder coat the frame (aka the harp) as it is aluminum. So I media blasted it at the base auto hobby shop and have decided to polish it up since it will provide a nice bright contrast between the two shell halves. I've noticed a few other restorers have gone this direction and I like the results. The two shrouds and the base should be done (powder coated red) next week (slow going with this vendor),
