As I was working on the car this past weekend, I took a few pictures of some details. There are still a small number of not insignificant things to do, but I see that I am nearing the end. I expended a lot of effort to keep the factory spot welds in the lower dog leg part of the rear wheel opening. I am very pleased with this outcome. Replicating the original factory undercoating didn't go as well as I would have liked. However, I do like that some of the old shows through and not in a way that it is obvious that there is old and new: I painted the aftermarket Suspension Techniques springs black so it would not be obvious that they are not original. I disliked the bright blue they were originally. Original rear drive shaft installation hardware - note the "9" stamped into the side of the nuts: The modified spring retainers should arrive back to me tomorrow. After I install them and check cam wipe patterns, I should be able to fire the engine up and break in the cam.
