Body Sand Blasting
Unlike the frame the body is quite the olympic event in sand blasting. Made a pretty good dent this weekend considering I did a door and part of the deck lid edges Saturday. I also spent some time fishing with dad today, but as im sure anyone knows fishing with dad takes precedence over car work.
I cant continue to express how happy i am with this car. It is absurdly clean, rust, and pit free. Hopefully next weekend i can get the trunk, cowl and inside the cab complete.

Frame Assembly - Fuel and Brake Lines
With the rainy weather its time to start having transition days where i work only inside. Car body was fully sand blasted and ready for finish work in the spring.
Installed both Brake and fuel lines. Brake line required alot of massaging to get into place, fuel line almost dropped right in place. Not sure why but Right Stuff left the fuel and brake lines long which mean modifications to the ends. Last picture is inline with the amount of fuel line sticking out on the originals it took off. Even managed installing motor mounts and rear snubber. Still waiting on some layout fluid for the front cross over brake line clips.
