Are you finished with the paint resto?
How many hours, total?

Sadly-Linda has passed away 2022. She was the 311's den mother and drove the first Rare-Parts ball joint project. RIP.

Maybe. I might do the rear panel.
No idea. Will go back through thread and add it up. I would guess about 30 hours. Half that taking stuff apart and putting it back together.

its quieter. Seems to pull a little stronger above 4k. Water temp seemed down about 3-4 degrees too.
No and no.
