Had to work this morning, but it was a short day. So... I wet-sanded the cross member and frame rails.Stopped for lunch, then went back out just long enough to wipe it down and shoot it.

Removed a couple of 1/2" spacers on top of the rear spring perches. I didn't put them there and should have removed them when I replaced the control arms. Seems to have helped with wheel hop, we'll see.

Hard to believe since I finished the car in July I have been to 3 shows with it. Towed on a trailer to the shows, and the car has just sat in the garage this last month since I have been working out of state. I have only put 6 miles on it so far.
