I didnt get to do anything with the Chevelle again yesterday as I mowed the yard til dark in the rain .
Ms Grumpy I do have a good powered weedeater for all the weedeating but I still didnt weedeat everything . I didnt go around my shop or the ditch this time ,just didnt have enough time.

Made some headway today... center link, tie rod ends, and idler arm are all painted. I cleaned and primered those yesterday. I took apart my steering shaft and regreased it, didn't really need it - but, peace of mind. I cleaned that up and gave it a coat of paint. I primered the sway bar, and painted one side of it. The sway bar bushing brackets got painted, as did the steering shaft coupler. I applied the eastwood coating to my exhaust manifolds as well. Feeling quite accomplished at the moment. :)

Tomorrow I am hoping to do the tie rod adjusting sleeves, the other side of the front sway bar, and start on the steering box, pitman arm, PS pump, and brackets. I'd love to have the crossmember and frame rails ready to paint by this weekend. Then reassemble everything next week.

Today I moved the 55 out ,the chevelle in ,all to get the El Camino out for a bath at the local car wash and a short cruise to dry her off .I think I will drive her tomorrow since it has a half tank of gas and my daily is on empty.

What Chevelle?

Last night I waxed the El Camino and got it shining like new money so of course I had to drive it again today .

Ahhh...you're the reason that there's a chance of T-storms this afternoon!! :p

Yep ,my fault . It sure is sticky and humid out today.

I haven't had much time for my car sadly. :( Today I had some free time, but decided to donate my time to a friend. I am helping with the resto of his 72' Pontiac Lemans. We're building a GT tribute for the pure stock drags, complete with a real YS code 400 Pontiac. :banana:

Today I cut some rust out of the deck lid, and stripped 90% of the paint off the passenger side fender. I sent him a few picture texts to let him know that I got a jump start on both pieces for him. Hoping he will come over and sandblast the deck lid Monday, and finish stripping the fender. I already have the patch panel ready to go for the deck lid.

Where are the pics ,I like me some Pontiacs too.

Here you go flash...
