Hi Everybody,

Still working too much, but I have been tinkering. Driver door gap near perfect, as well as the hood/fender gap.

Also, I bought Rodney's 1" lowering ball joints for the front. I got one installed last night. Along with about 2/3 of a coil cut out, the fender/wheel gap looks much better. Still need to do passenger side.

That's it for now...

Bob, your posts have become as frequent as mine. I hope things are still progressing smoothly. Looking forward to some updates.

Hi Neil,

I know... I wouldn't say smoothly as much as sporadically, but I'm really itching to get back at it (no pun intended). Garage is cleaned of the Halloween stuff. If weather cooperates, may actually do something.

All I've managed to do is prep the door/hood - fender gaps, smoothed out the body work on the driver's door, and a bit of work on the rear fascia.

Hope you're able to keep progress on yours. Looked great last I saw.

peace out...

Overdue bump...

First off, looks like there's not a lot of action here. The Construction Zone looks slow...

Anyway, been too lazy to upload pics, but I've spent the last 3 weeks working on the rear and rear diffuser. A lot of work with no real visible gains, but I can say that the rear diffuser and fenders each have a flange now that allows the diffuser to be mounted.

Also worked on adding ducts for the side vents. Probably going to run them to the rear brakes. Shout out to Wayne for sending me some ducts he made (several years ago). Very cool, much appreciated. Unfortunately, I could not use them. I knew the fuel filler would be an issue on the driver's side, but I found that the over-flow tank on the passenger side is also an issue. Glad I checked before gluing it all together. I ended up creating a buck from foam (haven't done that in years) and made the vent from glass.

Pics below... (edit: well that got mixed up)

Neal's duct:

foam buck and new duct.

And a rear view with the flanges built, carrying the body line around the rear facia.
