Engine Back in and started blasting/priming body

Engine back in (kind of a pain to line up the motor mounts, I guess I had the bolts very tight on the bushings when I welded them in the first time, but I got it.


Also while the chassis paint was curing (it still won't be fully cured for probably a few weeks) I started working on sandblasting the firewall and front end of the body and wanted to get a coat of primer on it so it wouldn't flash rust.  I went with dupont's cheapy 2k epoxy primer bought from local advanced auto.  It actually flowed pretty good out of the gun (first time using it), I didn't even have to reduce it as the hardener actually takes care of that.  I only mised up about 8-10 ounces, should have had a little more to put it on thicker, but i'll just spray this section again next time I paint.
