    Thanks. There are just no springs in it right now and the rear is blocked up. Gonna be bagged in the front with the Fatman Mustang II front clip and the rear will be 4-linked and bagged as well. Should be pretty close to sitting the rocker on the ground!!!:cool:
     
  8. Damn Brent....that color kicks ***!! The chop looks MUCH better too.

    How does the flatz react to wet sanding and buffing; does it still retain the flat look after being buffed out ?

    I didnt sand it or buff it out, so I don't know. No need to sand or buff it since it isnt being cleared. It is just basically a single stage flat paint.
