After a lot of work I finally primed the interior compartment today.
I stripped off the paint
Installed Engman's long stiffener kit,
Redid the speaker hole patch in the fire wall
Made a hand throttle

This is the speaker hole patch before and after

I just bought this new spray gun last week its a Devilbiss Plus. I've always like the
the old school guns with a pressure pot but this new gun is awesome. The delivery
is much like my older ones but atomizes so much better.

That is a great job Craig! Have you decided about the spray on sound deadener for the firewall? I think having mine sprayed on both sides really helps (and I still plan to use that B-Quite I bought last year as well).

that looks good craig!! good job. Interiors are not easy to do.

I used" quiet car "on the engine bay side of the fire wall. It works good, easy to install and paintable.

Keep up the good work

So you dug up my thread. Ok I'll post some more pics tomorrow as I've got quite a lot more done.
Thank you for all the good comments.

Thanks Toon. I remember see your engine compartment and my jaw dropped in awe.
Very nice job. I was considering using Quite Car before I saw your job and after seeing you use it I bought some. I'm going to spray it in the interior cabin, front and
rear trunks, engine compartment ,and underneath. I'm going for a quite comfortable car because me and the misses with be going to a lot of places with it.

When you're painting interiors, trunks, or engine compartments a very easy way to mask the odd shaped parts like wire harnesses, steering wheels, or shifters is to wrap them with aluminum foil. It's cheap and easy to apply and remove. With tape at 6-8 bucks a roll a couple dollars of foil goes a long way.

Excellent idea...I never thought of that.
