So today I sanded the red pretty flat (or so I thought), then wiped everythin down and taped allllll this crap off, and it was a lot more tedious than I thought, but whatever. Took 2-3 hours of taping, then I ran out of tape, and Jonathan started working on his Foxbody (yay more drift cars/friends who will play with cars) and needed some fittings. So we went to Advance...
"Oh hey Mike, you need fittings? They're actually on clearance"
ORLY?
'Bout 2 hours later I left with this;
1 of two equal sized receipts was as tall as I was, turned out they were clearing out all the old fasteners, including metric, so I just basically bought them out. I bought roughly 320 packages of fasteners, or fittings, for five cents per package. Yeah. $17 later I had just increased my fastener supply in stock at the shop by about a million billion percent. Win.
So after that random awesome adventure, we wen't to Belle de Taceaux, and I finished taping and painted the cage for the last time, although the paint started cracking, which kinda pissed me off, but whatever, its gonna get beat up anyways, and the places it did it aren't very noticable, and will be under the dash or padding in those particular spots anyways, so whatever.
Tomorrow gonna help Jonathan with his Foxbody some, and scotch brite + coat #2 of the white, then start working on wiring.
Side note: If you haven't seen the movie Convoy, you're missing out on life. Watch it.
