Car looks great, and here I thought Mister was OCD, no wonder he had a gleam in his eye when he first mentioned your Indy a few years ago. You did beautiful work to it.
Question: How did all the paint on all the engine and suspension parts hold up? When I restored my first 86 I did powdercoating, POR 15, and tremclad (all after sandblasting the parts) and drove my car in everything but snow and salt. I found some of the results slightly dissapointing after a while compared to the reputation POR 15 and powdercoating sometimes get.

Tremclad on the cradle/supension parts seems to be holding up very well.
Also used Duplicolor Caliper Paints on engine parts with good success. Like this stuff!  [This message has been edited by fierosound (edited 04-06-2012).]

Thank you.
If you look at the posting dates of the thread, it looks like I did it all in one month (Nov. 2008) NOT!!
TWO YEARS of hard work and $$$ starting September 2006.
Finished and repainted in Sept. 2008 and started this thread afterward.
My first post Sept. 3 2006 just after I got it.

Thank you! Just find yourself a BIG (more than I expected) bucket of money. [This message has been edited by fierosound (edited 12-03-2012).]
