Don't leave the rims yet!

Not for any particular reason, I was going to wait to mount the tires.  I guess it's time to get things done.  Now with the tires on the rims, I can start to work on the Goodyear lettering(both sides of the tire).

Perfect day to paint

The weather was dry, warm and a little breeze. With the rims done, now to the engine.

Finish wheels today?

It's one of those 5 hours of preparation and 10 minutes of painting.  I think all the wheels should be completed today.  Then onto the clutch installation and putting the engine back in.

Wheel progress

Removed the paint on 2 rims and taped them off.  I'll finish the other 2 today.

Working on wheels

Starting to work on the wheels.  Need to glass bead off the old blue and repaint.  Then I can mount the Goodyear's and letter the tires.

Parts arriving today?

My clutch parts are suppose to arrive today. But I just got a email from UPS.
 "Severe weather conditions have delayed delivery. / We’re working to deliver your package as soon as possible."

Waiting on clutch parts

What I have been waiting for should ship tomorrow.  The order was short a clutch disc.  So once I get the assemble I can place the engine back in the car.
Haven't done any work on the car these past couple of weeks.  It's been more about those spring chores.
Below is the results from my Goodyear paint test.  The paint didn't fall off, and no real yellowing of the white paint.  Much better result than the AVON tires.
