    Started priming the frame with rattle can paint I bought a year ago, I've had good results with the brand in the past but not so much today.
    Two cans spitting and dripping..

    So I tacked the firewall in place.

    I think she's in time-out. Paul has made her stand there for a long time now.

    She's upset the parts aren't being chromed to coordinate with her outfit (and skin).

    working on chassis assembly some more.
    front got new king pins, bearings, seals, shoes, cylinders, hardware and drums turned.
    rear got new pinion seal, new axle bearings and seals, new shoes, cylinders, hardware and drums turned.
    rear brakes will have to be opened back up for parking brake cables. Gotta order them yet..
    I was short on self adjuster hardware, needed one actuator link.. so I left them out
    it'll be manual adjustments front and rear.

    Simple bracket to bolt the clutch slave cylinder to.
    Needs a longer rod but you get the idea..
