Phase 8 -- Painting and Finishing

Well, we’ve done a lot in two months time
and now it’s all coming together. We have completed the chassis welding.
I have added the floor supports, seat belt mounts, and all the other miscellaneous
stuff I think I need. I primed the entire chassis and roll cage with
zinc chromate primer and then painted it all Banner Red. Then I permanently
installed the rear wheel tubes. I reinstalled the rearend and all
the suspension parts. I built and installed an anti-roll device as
well. This device will keep the rearend and chassis parallel and
help prevent the car from leaving the line unlevel. I started to install
the rest of the interior aluminum as well as blocked all the rest of the
holes in the firewall with aluminum. The thing is finally starting
to look like a race car!
