Thanks guys...it's gettin' there!

I'm finally posting some before & after pics. These aren't much, but I have the frame painted and other things going simultaneously. Getting ready to ship out parts for re-plating, those pics will really be worth posting!

I began cleaning around the rear hub & suspension to give myself a motivational boost. I used some spray cleaner & hot water to get a bunch of grime off, then tried Dana's carb cleaner method on an area on the trailing arm that wouldn't clean with simple green...worked good!

That should be an easy fix; upholstery thread and needle. Mine have a few splits & cracks I'm fixing, I'll post before/after pics when I finish.
