Wheres the heat come in ? I see circles are they all open?.
Did you here gas went up!. Not that there not much more of an option.


the circles are open. I didn't put any diffusers on them.
I'll eventually put some runs to the other side before it gets insulated better and drywalled.

did some seam sealing before the finish coat goes on.


Yes, I'm working my way to the front




painted the rear today also...
Like my little cart? and.............  this thing is heavy!!!!!

Yea, I was keeping the lines on until I get the new ones, so I can follow the bends.
Not changing axles, I'm just getting to them.

Iffy. When I bought Jim's TC wheel up at Reading I gave him my factory-original 14" full spare since he needed it to be able to send the car to the JY. The wheel wouldn't go on without pulling the caliper. It was a front wheel, but I figure it shouldn't matter.

(Since I was going to 11" brakes I needed a spare that would fit over them, and his TC wheel fit the bill).

I don't see how it could weigh that much, but you never know.
I was thinking the same with the lines. My father in law has the flaring tools and bender for them

I'll just leave the calipers off for now. It's not like I'm driving it around.
