CMC - that hasn't been talked about in ages around here. And wow, that gel-coat is 100x better than when my FFR's body came to my house.

Off topic a bit but is your BF's Skyline a right-hand driver? All of the gray-marketed skylines that came into the port of Los Angeles from Japan should all have been RH drivers.

That garage is full of two potent machines and both legendary. Congrats!

BTW: do not paint the car at this point. Get it worked on and running and get any bugs out of the way (creaks, electrical bugs, etc.) and once you feel it's running w/o any issues that would require removing the body (not even sure you can do that with CMC or not), then get it painted.

Let us know if we can be of any help. Many of us here are gear-heads and could even come over to assist. (if you go to my link, you'll get an idea).
