Got the sway bar painted, but the hammered finish is too bright for my liking, so I misted it with black paint. I think it'll be fine, but gotta let it dry enough to bring in and hang up.

i dig it! on the cheap baby.wish i knew about that mod year$ ago.
I just looked it over. I laid the black on just a tad thick in a couple spots, and missed the underside since it was hard to reach. I'll tackle it tomorrow when it's sunny and warmer. The end links should be in Monday, so I hope to have this project finished soon as I've neglected the dash and the infamous wheelwell too.

Installed the side marker lamps I got from Kevin . Thought about installing a head unit, but don't really like either one I have around the shop. Also pondered what to make rear seat divider out of or whether to just pull a used one out of a junker

Decided to pull my Megasquirt system out and put the Edelbrock 650 back on. I like the Megasquirt system, but it never seemed like I could keep it dialed in once the temperature changes. I would rather deal with carb than have a lean-out burn a hole in a piston.

I have the fuel pump switched back over today and will tackle the engine compartment tomorrow, after the garage airs out a little bit.
