    As usual all was going pretty good till I try & paint the small details, just not steady enough anymore. She be space ready! With that little push from resto I went ahead & clear coated the 65, it actually makes the color closer to the dark green I had, don't think I screwed it up? See when dry...

    Dang, that paint is nice, I'd say they went to the right man for that! Now you have me thinking of clear coating the 65, I usually didn't bother on models, see if I can pull it off or if I ruin the model?

    Moved on to getting the car out to get some shots with the stripe on, that with my other added black accents , center caps, mirrors & hood scoops, completes my vision! Tail panels were always blacked out on the 'Cuda model. I miss the days when cars had character! Busy hood!

    My 71 Duster work in progress

    Is there any way to test outside the engine? At this point I would just buy new & put them in expecting good stuff, and add a prayer with the way new stuff seems to fail more often than not!

    Well I woke up this am wondering what I'm going to do & something rattled around in my head & popped out, go ahead & put the darn stripe on, buying another if I screw it up will be cheaper than paying someone to do it. Wish me luck & distract my ghost for a few hours!

    My 71 Duster work in progress

    Hmmmm, what if you buy a new set & just replace the bad one, you'll have many in reserve to try one at a time if it's no good?

    Todays ride the oil pressure seemed to stay higher longer, stops were only going down to 15 or 16, I made a stop at a friends after about 1/2 hour of driving around. After that it got a little finicky on the way home, actually stalled when I pulled out of his driveway & made me nervous at stops...
