Took Friday off and spent it at the body shop. Was a good motivator, now my body guy has my doors sprayed. Told him the day before I was gonna come and help him, I don't think he believed me - but sure enough that got my doors in the shop and finally prepped. I had to leave at about 5 but he called me about 9pm and they are now finally painted. I made sure I stayed long enough that he would have to paint them that day or waste all the final prep work.
I got my belts and fan on the engine and got my power steering high pressure line modified so it will work with my steering box. The line comes from the hydroboost master cylinder so I had to have the metric o-ring end cut off and a normal SAE style flare end put on it's place.
Here is the steering column ready for paint. Cowl is also ready. Maybe they will get sprayed today.
Body guy finally got my shim painted so I was able to get the hydraulic clutch mounted on the firewall.
He has misplaced one of my door hinges and is looking for it or knows a friend he can get one from. After the cowl, steering column, tranny hump, glove box, radio delete and ashtray are painted, he should be done with color.
Then he needs to spray the underside of the hood black along with the emergency brake, 4 speed and transfer case shift boot rings and the radiator support brackets.
