Finally had time and agreeable weather to finish stripping the last control arm. I shot some primer on it and called it a day. I am off Sunday, weather permitting - I'll lightly sand it and shoot some paint on it. I still have over half of the front frame and cross member to strip, primer, and paint. Plus the spindles, steering arms, and calipers. I am worn out just thinking about it.

Got the control arm painted yesterday, will be painting the cross shaft and some other small parts today. I need to place another order to Eastwood. I am really liking the chassis black, hard to believe it lays down so smooth, and gives that kind of finish - from an aerosol can!

No new news to report, still waiting on an engine harness and a few small parts so I can finish getting the car running.

Installed an HEI rev limiter module today so I hopefully prevent any accidental over-revs.

Messed with the front & rear shock adjustments to get a little better ride quality for the street.

Then went out and drove it!

Fixed a minor oil leak...tightened the oil guage fitting in the block today on the '67.
Flew out to and drove back home from Gainesville, FL yesterday...picked up my truck/trailer I loaned out @ CB '12.
