After hours of wet sanding with 320, some light sand blasting, I applied a good coat of DP90 epoxy primer.

Next a good high build blocking primer was used..

That looks great Dave, is that a customer's car? Don't listen to Ed, he just doesn't want any more competition.

Re: Road Runner FAST build


As we speak i'm wire wheeling, sanding, and painting the nuts and bolts to hang the front suspension. Tomorrow i'm heading to Ceder Point but Monday some progress will be made. Tuesday i'll be doing some pushrod clearancing.

I sit here and look at those pictures i posted and it looks like a 1, 2, 3, job. I'm trying to figure out why it took me so long.. LoL

Wanting to get moving on the engine we acquired a rocker set-up and started the process the of clearancing the block for the big 7/16 pushrods.
