The pictures look good. Hard to see any flaws in those. Glad I could help...

Most of the filler I have seen want a course sanding finish 36 grit or 80 grit minimum. Is the filler you are using catalyzed? Also Bondo does not make the best products anymore...I would go with an Evercoat product

Thanks, The metric is fine and I will check it before I change it out. I have lots of buckets from customers jobs so I will be using 5 gallon buckets. Any particular vinegar? Just white vinegar?

What is your recipe for your electrolyte solution? I need to up my volume and this would be cheaper than buying another 1.5 gal kit

That's good info. I ordered a new power supply last night. It's 10 amp so it could handle 95% of what I might plate...I tried the 1 Ohm resister I bought to try to get my power supply to adjust but no dice

Blue, Is that #249? I didn't know you had it that far along!!! C

I considered it but don't have the funds right now. Glad Leon got it...

Ok. Today I messed with this some more. Set the Volts all the way up, Amps all the way down cut it on. Tried to crank the amps up and this is all I got without the resistor Added a 1 Ohm 100 Watt resistor, this is what I got Tried just the 1 Ohm resistor and tried to get the current up but no dice. According to this my power supply is bad... http://forum.caswellplating.com/forum/electroplating-questions/6724-my-power-supply-has-me-confused-can-t-control-current?t=6535

By the looks of your lady I would say your family is growing. You didn't post an asking price or I didn't see it...

The needle valves are probably stuck open or your electric fuel pump is applying more than 3 psi...

Unless the leak is coming from the cowl area...

From the looks of it, you'll be the passenger...

Be careful you don't tear the gaskets. There is a thread somewhere on rebuilding them and sourcing parts...

I am leaning towards Zed's position. Many coatings once cured don't take a second coat well with out scuffing, which is impossible in this instance

Were there stickers on the cases where the grinder marks are?

I have found that mechanical pump valves stick sometimes. They can be opened up and broken loose. then reassembled. They tend to work fine after that...

I would think if you let it cure for a while it will be fine. I would like to know the paper towel bit was encapsulated...

The engine... Exquisite!

Did those come from Norm?

With too much beer, my inability to walk straight does not mean I don't desire to walk straight...

I bought a 73 240z one time and put it in the backyard. It took her a month to notice it...

I never been able to drink that much beer...

You need to find a good frame shop in your area. They can probably salvage that frame rail and pull the car back the way it needs to be...

I think I am 7 years in right now. the car is jambed out and ready to start putting some suspension back in and lines and such. If I got really serious I could be done in a year and a half but I have a large family and am self employed so these projects take a long time. If I live long enough that's good. If I don't then it's "all gain"...

I agree, if he just bought it for $25k and had bids to almost $59k that's a home run. Sell it!
