Glad to finally see some yeller paint on them rusty 'ol parts Tony!! Looking good! lol
Did you figure out what the problem was with the slow drying paint?
 

On Rear end paint we did not use enough hardner and activater it remained soft for a month.
I was ready to blast it off but blast shop sugested putting it in thier ovens overnight. So we put it in a 160%oven for three nights and it now seems fine. Keeping fingures crossed The shade did not seem to change.
