Ivan's coupe: roof stuccowork

[Ivan141]

Had a bit of a marathon today.
Started out with scuffing up the engine bay, and painting it over with the gunmetal metallic and some 2k clear. This is the one place where the gunmetal remains visible so I wanted it shiny. Did not do a perfect job, but good enough for a noob painting at 8 deg C using a mini spraygun with a 0.8 nozzle (where 1.2 is recommended).



Finally had my Gates Barricade fuel line in (both in-tank and regular), so I replaced the fuel pump to bracket hose and every other rubber fuel line on the car.

Cleaned up the tank vent contraption:

Fuel line hookups.. that one bracket is a fail, should take it off to clean it up.
I'm sure either the pump or the sender will give me grief someday, so I'll get to it then.


The money shot (quite literal knowing what I spent on this):


The filler neck is not perfectly centered but it will do. This is due to a combination of replica tank, and my new chassis rail interfering with the tank fitment a tiny bit.

Will make something with my 3d printer sometime to make it look like it was intended that way.
