After spending all that time cleaning and painting the suspension components, I was disappointed to see how easily the paint chipped. I thought the high temp engine paint would have held up better. I am going to switch to a chassis paint.
I spent some time cleaning under the car, a lot of grease and grime accumulated above the rear end. Some Simple Green, did the trick. In the months to follow, I will detail the entire chassis and undercarriage.

I will clean the entire undercarriage. As you could tell from the sway bar pics, the front end will need a real scrub down.
I decided to put the motor back together, to get the parts out of the trunk but also so I can connect the motor puller to the heads. Boy did that make a difference, I almost forgot I couldn't fire it up.
