Re: '72 Drop member... "Betty"
When you sprayed the engine what did you use to prep it so the paint can stick, and did you clear the engine as well

Wash really well with a scotch brite and wax and grease remover. Seal with a good epoxy sealer. I used single stage emron industrial paint

Bed lined the inside of rear tubz before we paint. Don't want any rocks to star these after putting so much work into them.

Re: '72 Drop member... "Betty"
Here are the tubz all installed. I can't tell you how happy I am with them. Seems like everything that we did that was really cool got covered up. Finally a portion of the build everyone can see. So stoked. Now it's magazine time

I'm glad you all like it almost as much as I do. I was asked the other day if there was anything I would do different... I was suprised I was able to say NO! I wouldn't change a thing. Although WAY over budget, F it, it's just what I had pictured in my head and I'm goig to drive the $hit out of it.
