Thanks. I forgot how much I enjoy going crazy building a project vehicle.

The Prep and Etch works great. I would highly recommend it. Also be aware, many of the “high end” metal etches that a lot of body shops use is basically phosphoric acid (main ingredient). Same stuff.

It’s a budget build. It ran. I hope to keep running it. We’ll see.

I think I can save both my inners and core support with some welding and patching. The grill support panel is likely shot, well it’s in pieces right now. I’ll cross that bridge once the chassis / drivetrain is ready. Focus Daniel-San…focus.

Thanks again.
