WOW, look at all that room you have to work in. Plus level concrete floor and real walls. My walls took a beating from the high winds we are having. Im going to have to wire tie them up again. They break before the tarp rips.
I like the engine bay shots. Are you going to detail the bay or throw the engine in and detail it later? I was planning on just trowing the car together and detailling things later. I think for me its best to do the big stuff now.
Thanks for the pics. and keep them coming.
When the weather clears... I am gonna pull the car out in the driveway for a simple green, brush, and water hose session.
Cut out where the battery tray went for header clearance, and shoot it with some gloss or semi-gloss black.
