That's a great compliment Darrell... since you're GIFless...I know you're sincere!

I appreciate the feedback and compliments. Thanks so much!!!
...And Dan..... I'm scared now to start the Trans Am...
Moving forward, it's engine bay time! I masked off what needed to be masked off with proper masking mask off material..

... and proceeded to black out what needed to be blacked out with black out paint. I think that's about what I wanted to say
So, looking at my undercarriage and seeing survivor cars [same year... same plant] , I took my notes and laid down the funk with proper overspray and sloppy missed spots. Since the bays were painted from the top downward, the bottom of the frame rails, front crossmember, strut rod brackets, engine mounting perches.... all look black when viewed from the top yet show the red oxide underneath. I tried to replicate that and two factory markings I found as well.
Once I get the fenders on, I'll the spray the sound deadener in the wells, transmission tunnel, and firewall/inner frame areas. More to come!
Cheers
Dave
