This man does NOT, I repeat does NOT have OCD. He has CDO:

Clean
Detailed
Organized

Which is also in the proper alphabetical order. As it should be.

They need to make a garage Roomba, with a catcher on the front for loose sockets.

It only needs to be able to pick up the 10mm and 1/2" :shrug:

Got some work do underneath.

First step in the pace car front bumper conversion complete. All pieces stripped and powdercoated.

More bay smoothing

More blocking and body work. Sand and repeat.

When it's finished and the hood opens, it's going to sound like Tupperware.

You should probably leave a hole somewhere so that pressure can equalize. :O_o:

Question about the windshields, do you leave them uncovered like that with the intention of replacing them when finished or do they clean up easily when done painting/sanding?

If the windshield is bad or getting replaced. I leave it in the car and save a lot of time taping to
Keep overspray off the inside. Then, pull the glass before paint and then new glass in. If the glass if good and being reused, I pull it to start. But the glass would clean up…but it would take a lot of time and whos got that? Lol!

Yeah... How many used Fox windshields arrive that aren't pitted to hell?

It seems like our [brick] aerodynamics are designed to catch as many rocks as possible. This is why sufficient HP is recommended to ensure you can stay out front. :shrug:
