dude you really need to make a how to on polishing stuff to let everyone else know what tricks you use to make the work a little easier because that vavle cover is hot (along with everything else you polished) seriously how did you get in the small creases

patience, long hours, sandpaper and my fingers were the tricks to the valve cover.. i did it while watching tv so I would not realize how many hours it took to get to the level i wanted..

Loving all the pics... any idea when it'll be back to show roll?

hopefully ill be able to drive it to work wednesday, it will be together and on road but not complete.. waiting for my new lip, splitter, taillights, and need to build stereo in hatch.. but at least it will be together and on road this week
 
I should have all kinds of pics tonight and tomorrow as i get a few cars ready for the first local outdoor show of the season..


It just keeps getting better and better. Got any pics of the new connection to the valve cover for that catch can?

ill have a few more added I'm sure
 
installed my intermittent wiper switch, JDM armrest from scratchnsniff, volt meter and forcefed gauge pod and cleaned the car with some poorboys products.. all ready for the show in the morning,
 
I guess im the only one who noticed, but whats all the s*** on your passenger side strut tower? looks weird.

Engine bay is lookin good though, time to clean up that block and trans a lil lol

had a small hole in the strut tower, so i had it welded closed after we removed the remaining rust. what you see is the filler primer with a guide coat sprayed over it before we sanded it. the strut tower is now blue to match the rest of the bay. the block and the transmission have been cleaned up too..
 
The exterior has been sweet from the day it got sprayed. The bay just needed to catch up. Now it just needs a power adder to be fully up to par with the rest of the build. The color and cleanliness has always been an inspiration. Good stuff JT.

it will have everything all in due time, right now i need to enjoy it a bit and fix some rattles and build the stereo..

clay barred and I added Poorboys glaze, was getting ready for a show that was rained out..
