So perfect weather with highs in the low 70’s.  I took Friday off and wrapped up the painting of the firewall.  There is no more bare metal on the shell now!  I did make one mistake though.  I used the Satin Black finish which was different from the earlier paint!  I think it will be ok if I scuff a little and re-apply it, but most of what I painted really isn’t visible, so I am not too worried about it yet.  I can think about it over the winter and fix it next year.<\/p>\n

So I had to un-mount the rotisserie to paint where it was mounted to.  Then strip away the old paint:<\/p>\n

\nThen 2 coats of Eastwood Extreme Chassis Black (Satin):<\/p>\n

\nNext weekend I will re-attach the rotisserie so I can move it around over the winter. There may be a few smaller projects I tackle over the winter, but nothing too much until next summer when I finish the undercoating.  We will see what time permits and what I can fit in between now and next summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
