not yet, not stipping it only sanding it, only where it may be in poor condition is it going to be stripped

You pull from wherever you need to pull, for this purpose I didnt take measurements, the purpose of the machine was incase the front end needing tweeking to fit the fiberglass bumper, frame rails werent touched and honestly with all the parts removed from the front you can tweak the radiator support on a FC or a FD by hand for bumper fitment



so in other words, the frame machine only served as a place to park the car and the rest of the machine is not in the picture



I am not in business but I am a one man operation.

Looking good. I assume that the car will be red, again, once you start painting her?

Great job, so far. So are you going to paint the interior as well as the red parts in yellow or are you just going to paint the visible parts?
