I would also like to know when you guys are there. Maybe I'll loan you guys some air tools, and bring some surprise guests by.

So how did things go today? What did you discuss and do? Oh, and how did you like the cage now that you saw it in person?

Today we spent most of the day sanding the car down. Enkei then put the body filler on and we're going to sand it out some day this week.

Leedom popped out the sun roof and the dash. Vettezuki took the wheels off and ran things all day.

As for your fabrication work, well, it's incredible! The cage looks amazing in person and the motor mounts are a work of art. You are a master

Thanks. Do you have any pictures of the work today? What are you going to do about the dent on the drivers rear quarter panel near the tail light? Are you just going to fill it or are you going to hammer it out (I hope this is the route you take).

Very nice. The "old farts" were impressed.

Ben actually taped the action today with his camera via time lapse. He's going to post the video up here soon I think. As for the dent, Enkei pulled it out almost completely and then just had to use a very small amount of filler.

All things considered the body isn't in too bad of shape. We did find that it had a little bit of body work on the driver's side quarter panel, but that was about it.

Oh and I just want to go on record as saying the electrical work you did Bird is also incredible. The whole thing is amazingly clean

Good to hear. I got a little scared when you said that you sanded it and then used body filler without mentioning pulling any dents. I should have know better than that going off Adam's previous body work. He seems to be as bad of a perfectionist as me.

My brother an I continued on to about 10:00pm. I'll put up video in a day or two and fill in detail, but I'm a bit tired now.
