Re: my 64
I like the fuel cell! I might have missed it but is that a summit fuel cell? what size? how are you planning on routing the fuel fill?

Re: my 64
Scored a nice steering wheel! I dont get how someone can have a nice wooden wheel like that and then paint it black!

Re: my 64
FYI, I am not sure what color you are going to paint it but I put brake caliper paint on the inside of my backing plate and I had to scrape the paint from the shoe contact points, wow even with a razor blade that was tough going! So maybe for something that gets alot of "abuse" like a steering wheel that might just be the right paint. my 2 cents anyways.
