It is so tempting to rush and finish your wet sanding and finish work, but don't do it. I had a shop do my car and I ended up doing everything over myself. The worst of it is that I am a beginner in body work. Gene-o I know you are patient. You have done such a good job already. Your ideas sound good. Marty I know what you mean. You want to finish, but patience is a good reward.

well said Marty, I've been fighting the urge to call up a buddy of mine to use his "heated" garage so I can finish wet sanding and polishing my car. I know he'll say yes, but there isn't enough light to see everything clearly. I just know I won't be satisfied when I take it home. I can wait for spring and those nice warm sunny days in spring so I can roll it out in the sun and see everything. Besides, it gives me a chance to add more custom ideas to my plate, as if morphing in composite head lights and relocating the antenna weren't enough.

Daniel, as someone who just finished a similar project, I've one piece of advice. Don't rush to the finish line. It's now, when the project is "almost done" that the temptation is greatest to just get'er done - cutting a corner or two on the way. Don't fall into that trap! Your patience will be rewarded.

Thanks Joe - and to think I have never ran nitrous on any of my cars! I'm a good listener though.

Jack that was very good advice on the nitros. (good call)
Just a note on the exhaust Geno-O. It starts at the cam and it is very extensive to port and tune to your fuel type. Even after my last 383 stroker rebuild in my Camaro I still want to pull the motor and tweak it a little more. I will get it right one day.
