10/22/13 Day 69
The exhaust has now been lengthened to exit in front of the rear tire. Custom tip is now at the local chrome shop.
Roof trim has now been installed and what a pain it was. I had hammered the roof aluminum over the edge to help prevent leaks, So it had puckers in it and was not bent to a full 90 degrees. Trying to get everything to line up and only using screws on the side was a challenge. Stainless steel screws are tough to work with so that didn't help. Also installed the front and rear upper marker lights.
We also cut out the well openings in the panels.
Cold and rainy weather is now slowing us down. Biggest push was getting the panels on before this hit which we did so I'm happy about that. I need to get the compartments painted soon so we can install doors. I think I'm going to take the weekend off! I don't think we have had two days off in a row since we started this project.
