This is what I have done so far. The frame is completely paint, the underside has been undercoated and all other parts have been painted with Por15.
Suspension and cooling tubes, etc under the car have been painted with Por15 Black gloss. Engine bay, and front bays were then coated again with chassis black Por15.
Here are the pics.


]
This car did not originally have air cond. so have installed all parts stolen from my '84

Grand Am brake upgrade. New rotors, pads, calipers, new ball joints, poli bushings (oh hell - new everything!)



Next - front wheels going back on, taking off rotisserie, and installing 3800 engine next.

Your problem is because of the # signs in the link to the pics. You need to code that as %23 and your pics will appears, thus:

https://images.fiero.nl/pffimages/Resto_pic%237_2.jpg

https://images.fiero.nl/pffimages/Resto_pic%238.jpg

Don't ya just love us smart asses !!!

P.s. Looking good, I like the cradle to turn the car over, beats crawling around on the floor

I tried to change thes to image tags so that they would appear in the post and the forum said I had exceeded max images of 8 per post. That's a new one on me. hey Cliff, what gives?

Your sig counts as an image. His 7 pics and your sig pic gives you 8 images. The forum will not let you post 8 images in a single post, although the error message should not say exceeded 8 images, because you can't post 8, should read exceeded maximum of 7 images per post.

Here's the two you didn't post as images:

in case anyone else didn't understand my question (it was answered) I was referring to the HARD lines. I've got the braided steel lines but I hope to one day replace the factory lines under the car like you did with those SS ones...NICE! The car will last until there is no more fossil fuel! May i suggest Evans NPG+ for the cooling system? it has NO H2O, is low pressure so that means never having to replace another heater core or hose ever again. www.evanscooling.com

I would like to see pics of the rotisserie or a link if it is already posted. That could be a nice thread how-to on it's own. Really nice job on the frame! This will be an awsome rebuild when you are done!

Nice work!

I'm curious what you're blocking out of picture #4. Special secret stuff for a future project?

Sorry Doug, no surprises - When the pic was taken, there was too much clutter behind making it hard see the frame.
Here is a pic of the untouched photo
