Been knocking this bay out whenever I have some down time. Got the first coat of primer down to check my filler and look for imperfections . Wow, looks great but have a ton of issues to fin that’s for sure!

Looks really good!

Keeping A/C?

I was comparing photos and found it interesting mine has an additional low side port after the pressure regulator, mine R134A connection ports on either side, where yours just appears to have it close to the firewall.

Welppp finally got the bay painted!!! Came out great if you ask me!! I’ll slowly begin to reassemble the front end over the next month or so. Now to remember where all these bolts go 😂 . Here are a few pictures.

yes there are a few small spots that didn’t come out 💯 but remember this is my first try at any body work and painting with a spray gun so don’t crucify me
