    The front oil cooler hard lines received undercoating and black paint like the wheel well at the factory . Also , the fenders were on the car when it was painted . It has to be hard posting pictures for everyone to critique , but good luck .

    Thank you Ed. Never knew that.

    Simonjjb- You are doing a great job. Did that on the '73. Thinking through it all and asking lots of questions the way to go.

    It always amazes me how much longer it takes to reassemble a car vs taking it apart.....the long, somewhat tedious, But critical wiring process continues...

    I'm curious about what type of sound deadening you will choose?
