It certainly has possibilities, but those mirrors,,,wow

The local chrome shop stripped the wheels, and they are chassis black powdercoat. The headers are cerakote high heat silver, supposed to be good to 1800 degrees. That kind of cerakote is air dry, even though I have the powdercoat oven did not use it for the cerakote, we will see how it holds up. I will be doing the exhaust the same to see how i like it. Thank you for the kind words.

Slightly more progress.

Foam was just ebay purchase, do not remember who from. Cover was a recent ebay purchase which was one of the reasonable ones listed. It was way way to "short" to wrap around stock foam, so I cut foam down probably 2-3 inches and attached with stock hardware.

Worked when I posted, I will try again. 

 Hope your recovery goes well. Sure sorry to hear that happened.

A bit more progress on the 75. Might be ready in spring, I got sidetracked saving a different 75 350 (that I will put in sale section shortly). 75 on lift is current project, other one is the one I will list here first.

 Also Agree, good people, much knowledge to help all.

Once you get it sorted, would love to see it, just looks like such a clean build. So if you get across the river, give me a shout, I am on the east side, just across 270 bridge. Keep up the good work.

I got a set just to play with for a 350 build I am doing. The guy on ebay selling them is close to me, I believe he is in Pacific or Eureka Missouri. They look just fine but I have not installed them yet. They were $194, we will see, will build engine this winter.

Mark, I am not sure of what you are looking for exactly, but we used sprag bearing/hub on our racing kart. A family we raced with runs an aircraft machine shop facility, and they supply kart parts including sprags.  https://www.hegar4.com/zc150/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=102&zenid=1040b229de1a73ac23d6fce004e1bf06 

 They are very handy, Many years ago, I owned a computer shop, and we bought those in rolls for keeping wires neat. I still have a roll of red, and a roll of black, great idea.

 This is a really nice option.   https://www.cerakote.com/shop/cerakote-coating?finishes=cera_glacier%2Ccera_1800

 Mike, I am probably just across the river from you. Do you have any idea if any site exists (or should one be started) that does file sharing like your gasket scan??? My son also has a very nice laser, 3D printer, and a vinyl cutter, and he makes stuff for me. The guy on FB (burgess) has been making a number of parts, and they look great. Mark may know him??

 I converted my old HF blast cabinet to a water/vapor blaster this year. I tested several media grit on RD cases and carbs. Like has been said, came out well, I just cleaned very well, and gave them some time in ultrasonic cleaner. Just an fyi,cost me about maybe 250 to convert my cabinet, and parts come very close to the much higher dollar cabinets currently available.
