Some updates as of today.

Joe pulled off the rack and gave it a cleaning.


We ended up relocating it 25mm forward.

I hit up my buddy Arturo over at Express Body shop for Paint. Its a single stage black with hardener and extra clear.







Im happy with the way it came out!

Previously, i was debating on wether i should tub my bay or leave it as is. i decided to clean it up and leave it as is. Going over my "repaired" rad support, Joe decided he'd re-weld everything back on.

"I'm glad you did such a crappy job at welding your radiator support back on, it makes it that much eisier for me to remove" -joe. lolololol. FML.

We decided on making the rad support detachable for ease of future engine pulls. Here are some pics of the patch work.

























He made some of the plates removable that way i can remove the harness if need be.







Everything is lining up perfect now! Joe has a great eye for detail. Super stoked hes on this project.

He'll be stitch welding the rest of the metal joints and reassembling the front so we can take it to paint on Monday! After paint, we'll be tossing in the SR FINALLY!

Final Bout, Here we come!
