Not a whole lot done so far, but a 50 hour week at work gets in the way!

DeChromed and painted the wheels. Still a bit too large for my taste....

The fuel pump was painted flat aluminum later

Nice job so far, the wheels look soooo much better! Check your fan clutch placement, though. You put it over the torsional damper, but it goes on the fan. I look forward to seeing more. Do you have a color scheme thought out yet?

That's not a fan clutch anymore...it's a low-tech "over-rev" limiter now. ;)

just kidding, it sounds like the instructions weren't very clear on where the fan clutch gets attached.

Yeah I just noticed I goofed... the way I glue things its not coming off! Im thinking about doing a metallic maroon/cherry color with a metallic charcoal gray. The line would follow the body line on the side.

Yes it most certainly is. Gotta keep those dang teenagers from abusing it!
