Great job. Lots of work but worth the effort. Congrats on the outcome.

Quick question: Did you brush or spray on the POR-15 on the chasis and other parts? Just curious. I've done it both ways with varying results on the "glossiness" of the finish. However, most of the parts I coated with POR-15 had a final top coat of a low-gloss heat resistant paint.
