No, it's not powder coat just flat black wrinkle paint that you can find at any auto parts store
Wow! It looks nice! And I bet it was pretty cheap!

Happy New Year to you all. This will be my first update this year. Things have been going very slow on the GT due to other things needing my attention. I was able to get all the fuel system in " fuel tank, lines, filler neck, in tank fuel pump,

It's been awhile since I last posted, but the GT is slowly moving forward. Let's start with I now finally have a good windshield.
Packing materials Wood Shipping box Rectangle Carton

The only thing better then getting a windshield was getting it RUNNING!!!!! Yes, it runs and moves🙂. The Sniper is starting to p-ss me off, because it just not doing what it should. I already had to replace the pressure regulator. Also waiting on new injectors, but it does run. It's sure nice not having to push it around any more. Also most of the wiring is completed.
Wood Road surface Asphalt Flooring Gas

This is the next challenge! This should be fun.

Another crispy critter dash...
Haven't done it yet myself, but thinking landau top foam 1/2" thick would.do the trick as the base for a sewn cover should do the trick....
