Euromodder- Short answer, yes. Longer answer, probably not before the trip. I still have a lot to do and I might have to remove the chin if I can't get the engine cooling under wraps. It wouldn't take long to do, but might need adjusting that I might not have time for.
COcyclist- Thanks for the tips. I might still take 80, but will be better informed as to what to expect. Might have to make that part the "Vetter-esque" portion of the trip
.
Varn- The rims only have surface rust, but I'm planning on cleaning them up and painting them flat black already. I don't really think they would be worried about them, but and ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
I talked with our body shop supervisor and he has graciously allowed me to use the paint booth, but only on a weekend. I only have two before the trip, and one of them I'll only have a couple hours on Saturday morning for last minute things.
Time is running out!!!
