The Firewall was painted with 2 different types of paint (Satin and Gloss), so I painted a small piece of metal to verify the color I had on hand (Gloss). So then I cleaned the firewall and subframe, then feathered the paint lines on the firewall and scuffed it to get ready for a respray. Still need to hit a couple spots on the subframe which I hope to work on next week, then hopefully next weekend paint the Firewall and subframe touchup, then the new suspension parts and new leaf spring perches which are EDP coated. Once those are painted, I will be set to work on all my suspension parts over the winter!<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/dougbratton.info\/blog\/2025\/09\/9-27-2025-update\/img_1560\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3921\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3921\" src=\"https:\/\/dougbratton.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_1560.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dougbratton.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_1560.jpg 640w, https:\/\/dougbratton.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_1560-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/dougbratton.info\/blog\/2025\/09\/9-27-2025-update\/img_7c0c\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3920\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3920\" src=\"https:\/\/dougbratton.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_7C0C.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dougbratton.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_7C0C.jpg 640w, https:\/\/dougbratton.info\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_7C0C-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Steering linkage parts arrived.
