************************************************************************************************************************

I had seen such a vast difference when I did the interior...I even went so far as to jack up the car and spray the entire underside of the car with Duplicolor's Sound Eliminator. I knew it would only help reduce road noise. And it did! Plus, I knew would help protect the car from any moisture that might creep in and begin the rust cancer.

I got nice thick coverage on the underside. After words, I coated everything in a nice coat of Satin black to seal the Sound proofing. I knew with that sticky type coating, it would be a dirt magnet! The satin made it possible to wash with a brush before shows. The dirt comes right off!

I avoided any moving components & exhaust tubing. I did NOT spray the transmission, drive shaft, brakes, shock, or struts.

Then I moved on to the wheel wells. I coated them in Soundproofing and then coated them with a good coat of Satin black to protect them!

Now when Joe and I shaved the Gas filler door and changed out the fuel pump, the gas tank was out.

I decided to take the opportunity to soundproof the body under it...

Then once coated, I painted it red over the coating...

TAILIGHTS
****************************************

I noticed a spot was vibrating in the rear! I found it was behind the taillights. You know what that meant...I duplicolored the exterior tail section behind the taillights.

Then, just to be sure, I got the license plate and added sub box carpet to the back of it!
