Great work.  Thanks for the pictures. 

Just a little tip.  You do not need teflon tape on your water temp sensor.  It needs the block to ground the sensor.  You may have problems it you keep it like that. 

Again you are doing a great job!

Sooner T/A  Thanks for the tip I didn't realize that, I guess that's what this site is all about. A shout out to all the people that make the site possible, and the people that are kind enough to look out for newbies like me :)

I've finally made it to the body shop, so I thought I would post a few shots of the car. I will be going back with the original sundance yellow.

Shop started trimming out the car, I think this was one coat so far, hope to start going back together next week, and start seeing some more BRIGHT  sundance yellow.

Went to the paint shop the paint is 2 part base/ clear, I looked closer at the photos and it sure looked like they had sprayed over two ding marks, but I looked at it again and it must have been a shadow because it looked fine at the shop.I guess you can't always tell from a photo.
