Amazing how a good paint job and tastefully applied decal can transform the suspension tank! It does look very OEM - hope it rides as well as it looks. Can't wait to see the rest of the car opasha !

No wood floor under the tank?! Hahaha Looks great though

opasha MattBianco Yeah I second that.....I probably only have another 20 or so years left on this planet

Please, please make it soon

If it makes you all feel any better, he is getting off work soon and we are both going to the garage to finish it all today (even in this snow). I hope everything works out. Here's a teaser to show everyone what zero height looks like before we had power for the tank to put any air into the bags. Ignore the ugly satin chrome missing sections. Those had to be removed to prevent wasting vinyl and are going to be finished up today to perfection:

As always, thank you for the kind words and patience

The cold made it uneven and shrivel up, so they need to be reheated properly. If you go to the OP and scroll down to the "Satin Chrome" portion, you'll see that the running boards were nicely wrapped before with the fender flares.
