Re: Creeping Death

So now it's sitting like this... still need to get new calipers, rotors and pads. All new brake lines (stainless steel and rubber) have been installed. Now that I have the headers out of it... I am thinking of having them powder coated. Unless there are good high temp exhaust paints out there nowadays to do the job. Any suggestions?

It will be like this till my fiancé and I get back from Maui after out wedding. Looking forward to getting back on the prowl with the rig.

Oh yeah... last pic... how many of you cats have jack stands made out of '40 Ford axle tubes? Rock on...
