Project 13B-RE updated Nov 22 2003 powder coating

We the installment of the Project 13B RE update is here. Picked up the irons and housings and pully's from the powder coaters. They did an increadable job on the parts. The Guys at Custom Powder Coating in Dallas here kick butt. The colors we picked are dorment blue and silver. Still waiting on the lower and upper and front cover to come back from the cermaic coaters should be ready on Monday or Tuesday.

We should start the porting some time next week also.

here is the link to the pics

very nice. I love powder coating. I wish i had the money to do a swap like that...

though Im working on a 'secret' swap now. Ill let everyone know when its done if its a failure or a success.

I looked at your car mods site and it said you had you sunroof motor and trackes removed. I too am thinking of donig this too. How exactly was this done? do you have a new headliner? How is the sunroof hole filled?
