I actually have the speedometer in it tried to prop it up flat with the glove box. I didn't want it flexed or warped, that spray on dye did better on old bits, the area around the speedometer needs touch up after I put it in, it already sat 9 months was quite snug. That is a soild tip thanks been keeping new bits inside the house for climate control gets pretty cold or hot in the shop

I'm plugging away at it try to get at least a couple hours a day. I got a big yard and all the spring setup has been the priority. That is almost done after the first weekend in May ill be free to hit it hard. Never sanded a car before but by the end part of a front I learned what it will be. I have some round foam tube, it's like the core they cut out of bike pads, in various sizes was thinking it may work on the vents. Paint stick sounds easier. So far it was 1x paint so I'm not sanding 10x layers. I just wanna do a wheelie still sanding

I sprayed the front fender with rust encapsulater plus from east wood then filled the holes with metal epoxy and sanded that. I will spray the whole fenders with that. Not much filler required. The inside has a globby coating that will need chipped away in some places most looks solid. The fenders are in good shape for what it is overall. Got one ready about to coat on the outside. Figured out what blocks to use in the corners ect. So should be ready to flow on progrees again. I am not sure wtf I'm doing but this seems like a logical way to go and this be what it will be eventually primer and paint.
