Picking back up here, as many of you know I started ripping the old 8n apart over my Christmas break...

Starting to come back together....

Still have alot to do on her though, put the new tank in, get the hood sandblasted, this isnt an amazing job as i didnt have everything apart but it is goingto be alot better than it was.

No thats actually just ford gray no silver anywhere

They look great, I used this metallic stuff on his rims and its supposed to simulate the look of late model car and truck aluminum rims. I need to find the pic's to post
