A wife that allows a cake like that and demands the Fbody to be finished is a keeper for sure. Congrats!

You get the epoxy from an auto store?

Just going to finish up with some randoms and some excerpts.

I'm actually in the middle of a shop remodel right now! HA

New walls, insulation, new ceiling, 20'X8'X8' addition, new lighting, new power, etc....

Big shout out to John Bewley @ LJMS... He has helped me a ton through all this and takes care of me with anything I need that he orders. Plus he sounds good on the phone.

This was the AC delete.. I kinda rigged up my own thing. It sealed up nicely though, deleted the black box, made my own block off panel, and my own hose routing. Dropped a good bit of way.

Yea, it was just a tube with white/black singles and you mixed it into a gray mix. Seemed to do good.. Easily sandable and seems to be holding up so far.


And yea, definite keeper. LOL
