Nope.....I actually Flatbacked the bottom....(fell asleep a few times too) I have been asked to do it for a friend....I SAID HELL NO.....It is very nice, I take alot of pride in the detail work, But never again...Toothbrush and lots of degreaser. I know that the bottom will get dirty from time to time. I am trying to prepare myself for that. I don't want a trailer show n' go car !

Hey listen you guys, I really do appreciate all the comments and ideas from you. My only wish is that i can someday drive to catjam. Had been planning for 3 years now....With wife and 3 kids, baseball, cub scouts, girl scouts, and track. There was never enough time or MONEY to finish. So again my TBIRD went on the back burner. But one year i will make it there, (all you guys will be in space ships then) lol,lol,lol,........:D
