FINALLY painted her today. I came out of my house after three days of rain and saw all of the fresh rust on the beautiful welds and said that's it!! So flat black from the pinstripe down. She looks pretty sexy. Wish I had a sunny day here but you can get the idea from the pics. Oh yea and I accented the brass knuckles as well. We also had to weld up my track bar mount as it was cracked wicked bad and causing a horrible creeking/popping noise. Welded that up and realized it wasn't just the track bar mount that was wicked cracked. Now, I had known that the frame was cracked at the steering box but holy ****. 2 inches around the top bolt had completely broke free and my steering box was flexing about two inches when the wheel was turned. We had to redneck a fix pretty quick until my C-rok brace comes in. I will have some pics of the fix tomorrow. Well, check out the paint job and let me know what you think.

Thanks broham!
Here's the latest on the build. We got the Halo 90% tacked up. Just need to add the triangulation pieces to the rear two rectangles and add some straight pieces to the front. Man it looks tough.



Here is what we will be doing Monday
