Thanks Doc, but that winners bar is out of my reach at this point.
Those guys are on a different level, different types of builds. When they get done they almost need to hire security to guard their cars 24-7 and driving the car is out of the question.
That's fine for the millionaire collector types, but I want to drive my junk lol!

Can�t sing, don�t run very good any more, can't play any musical instruments, can�t spell, can�t surf� I�m not real good with a shotgun at the trap range, I don�t fly a plane, can�t type� It�s a really big list, and the older I get the bigger the list gets.

Do you guys ever use a recirculating air cleaner? Not something that you would probably use while actually sanding as it does increase air currents but it is great when cleaning up or doing things where a little bit if air movement is not a big problem.
Woodworkers often have these in their shops to improve air quality and I made mine out of an old furnace fan and motor with a series of filters - the last one being a micropore filter.
It makes a hell of a difference when sanding wood work.
Brent My dad has something similar he made in the shop. He uses furnace filters and fans to suck the dust and fumes out.

tz, I'll bet he has something finer on the system than just furnace filters. Those are the course debris filter. bit there should be a final filter that is much finer.
This is qualitatively the same as what I use. But with a big furnance fan and motor, it really clears the air fast.

He probably does on the outside. There is a furnace filter on the inside of the shop and there is another in an outside box. You're probably right.

SWEET! You might need a trailer behind the bird to haul the extra fuel for that drive.

more blocking tonight. then I got side tracked and shot some of that base I picked up 2 years ago to see if I could live with it on this car. I just cant do it, I shot it over black e-coat to see if it could end up dark enough over a black sealer. It's just not close enough. It will be nice for another project though. The phone camera flash really screwed that picture up too, it's nice, it's just not right.

I like it, but it's not a close enough match to the original color for this car.
So I'll save it for something else.

Good as I think it is a crappy color. A RR should be one of the following,
1. Black
2. Red
3. Electric Blue.

Not your original obviously, but always liked black cherry hot rods.

3. Electric Blue. I recollect a bunch of yellow ones too. The bronze color you tested reminds me of a couple of Super B Six-Packs that were around town.. both owned by the same guy. RIP

RIP I'm glad you are ditching that coppery colored stuff. For once I'm in TLee's camp on that issue. Electric blue or yellow are the two colors I recall most often. They were pretty distinct for RRs.
