Repainted SPICA Air Canister

The SPICA air canister that Carriage and Motor Works installed in December was used and a bit dinged up and rusty.  Went to my favorite Alfa Romeo bulletin board and the members suggested I use Ace Hardware Machinery Gray spray paint.  Removed the canister, cleaned and sanded, masked the 2000 plate, and gave it 3 coats.  Quite the difference.  Now I need to the find a missing decal on the top of the air canister.

New Seat Belt Sleeves

The seat belts in Gina were the originals from 81.  Needless to say, the plastic sleeves on the buckle end were worn and broken and had some sharp edges.  Searched and searched for replacements but found none as these were for low bucket seats and required an 8 inch sleeve.  Most bucket seats are higher and use a 12 inch.  I finally sent an email to Wesco Performance Products and they had 8 inch sleeves for some of their full seat belt sets but the sleeves alone were not in their catalog.  A couple of email exchanges led to them doing a special order and shipping me 2 of the 8 inch sleeves.  They fit perfectly.  Now on the the next project.
