Tomorrow I'll likely finish up under the hood and put the front end together, maybe get underneath to button that up as well... :thinking:

You serious? All this in three days? I feel pretty stupid now. It takes me forever to do the simplest things. Would you come south and help me with my interior?

Looks fantastic!

Nice Job!! :bigthumb: Wondering at what stage of the assembly will you be spraying the OEM undercoating in the wheel wells?

The owner does want it....So I will be doing it last to make sure everything gets covered just like the factory  :brainiac: Can't wait, been awhile since I've had somebody that wants it....hides all that beautiful detail work...

Thanks. I know what you mean by hiding some of that nice detail work.  But for me a properly restored Mopar should always have factory undercoated wheel wells [unless its a Super Stock or other light weight].  IMHO just looks wrong without it.

I hear ya...I prefer it without that ugly black stuff...I like the nice clean look and it's much easier to keep clean....to each his own though... :slapme5:

I'm using one of those cheap eBay Schutz guns (I think Harbor Freight has them too) and using the Resto Rick Undercoating.  I really like the way it comes out.   :yes:

Not to hi-jack your thread, but another Resto Rick product I like to use is the Cosmoline in a rattle can for the control arms.  We know the factory dipped them, but dipping them in Cosmoline doesn't last very long.  But painting them doesn't have the oily petroleum look either.  So I paint them to look like Cosmoline (up to a imaginary dip line) then after they dry I put a light coat of the real Cosmoline on with his rattle can.  It has a really factory correct look and holds up really well.
