    Not too much. It's been slow. I did a motor swap in a customer's 57 Chevy that loos like Project X. I think I showed that. My 38 Chevy Gasser will be getting a motor soon. And I'm cleaning the trunk in my 60 Pontiac to be Zolotoned tomorrow. Nothing all too interesting. There's an auction in Palm Springs this weekend with over 600 cars. Usually a really good variety. Lots of my friends and I go there. So, I think I'm trying to go stress-free by not doing to much in the shop. I'm gonna stop in Redlands on the way there. The guy with the 57 has a place with over 100 cars, and I think he's got some work for me soon. Rod knock in a 69 vette, and a flat cam in a 69 Chevelle SS 396

          It's a spatter(?) paint. Like a lot of trunks or inside of some ovens are painted. One color, in this case dark grey, with spots, in this case a medium grey

                      Yes, I buy it from a body shop supply. The spray can stuff looks OK, but it's water soluable. One small drip in the trunk from washing the car, and you've got dog shit immediately. The real Zolotone works bitchen. I did a friends Camaro a few months ago, and with the Zolotone only 2 days old, it was unaffected by a large amount of fuel from a faulty steel braided line coming from the fuel cell.

                            Hey zombie......that Cortina is a sweet ride! If it were me, I wouldn't let an angle grinder near that car, it looks perfect just like it is!
