I asked Julian this question and I'm going ask it to you: Are you gonna be able to put the car back together?

Regardless, these parts are coming out gorgeous.
 
I have tons of respect for the work you do, the effort you put in on every detail and the pace you´re progressing with :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Looking good! Now I don't want to sound like a wuss but you really should wear some gloves when you're painting or using chemicals. The **** you're absorbing into your body is nasty stuff.

for those of you with rug rats happy fathers day....
 
I started using the Grease Monkey HD nitrile gloves, 8mill units from Princess auto a year or so ago. I too like the tactile feel of no gloves but these work surprisingly well. Stay away from the thinner 5-6mill grease monkey gloves they are absolute junk and will tear on a friggin hang nail. I bought a pack because they went on sale....I go through at least 6 pairs when working on a project compared to one pair of the 8 mill units.
 
Almost twice the price as the ones I get locally....when you have to tack on shipping to the North of Canada kind of kills the "bargain" sometimes. ;)

That an 8 1/4 or 9 1/4 rear end that you dragged out? Keep the brakes complete with backing plates, just unbolt the 4/5 bolts that hold them to the axle and store them away...they look like 11 x 2.5"?
