Thanks for all the props guys!
I got the car all painted this weekend. I have alot more work to do on the chassis still but I just hated the surface rust that was going on. Wire wheeled the whole thing and gave it a few coats of tremclad. Once the chassis is don I'll get it sand blasted and give it a real spray job with the gun. I just ordered my fuel cell, a new rad and a bucket seat so I'll be able to start test fitting some components next week. I'm also going to re design the fron end a bit. As it was pointed out earlier in the thread, there is a but of a clearance issue with the tires deep in the suspension travel. It will probably be fine in the long run how it is now but I'll feel better once the issue is fully gone. The towers are staying where they are but I'm removing a bar from each tower, relocating it higher up out of the tire path, then cutting 3 or 4 inches of the bottom end of the tower off.
