The mold has been poured, dried and I've been on the endless journey of sanding. This feels familiar.... Anyway. This mold looks to be really good. I'm getting close to having it done, but I need it to be perfect prior to completing the B side of the pour. Don't let the lack of pictures make you think that sanding this is easy because it's not. There's minimum of 40hrs of sanding shown and I'm using 60grit. The mold material is EXTREMLY dense. Actually, the mold is about 40lbs to give you an idea how dense it is.

Sharing what I have so you don't think I have abandoned the thread. I've been busy with work... and that kinda pays the bills so that takes priority.

On a different note... The shop owners are ready to make my car leave. Over the next couple weeks I will be trying to get my car started. First start?!?!?!?! Yeah. Like I said, shop owners want it out, so do I!
