Well,

I am gonna wait on the whole revamped nose till the offseason to do it right...

Got the fuel lines in and done....

Now gotta fix the rear of the car from the RX7 hit and the two fires it went through.....

Al, you should have been here buddy, could have shown you the basics of bodywork... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ....had some fiberglass repair of LGM rear ground effects...done...had some bubbled paint from the fires....done...had a lot of little cracks and dings in the rear bumper in general...

Got it bondo'd with the "Vette" repair bondo with fiberglass in it for strenght....got the bumper filled with the flexible bondo....got the flexible primer on the bumper, and regular primer on the fiberglass...got the thing sanded down real nice.....and got it spot puttied....drying now...

Randy, I don't have a window in my garage but have strongly considered putting one in there to make it easy to use a window mounted A/C unit to keep the area cool. Have you tried that?

In the winter I have plenty of heat in there thanks to propane and propane accessories, but I'm out of luck in the summer.
