I picked up some parts from the powder coater today, which was a few days ahead of schedule. 
I am happy with how they came out, the color combination is exactly what I wanted. It is actually really close to the factory color. The red Mitsubishi symbol sets it off well I think.



The transmission turned out to be in better shape than I had expected. I am installing some better seals and cleaning up some bushings that were showing wear. Also I found out my sunshell was warped causing uneven wear/heat on the kickdown band. I ordered a new band, a paper/seal kit, and some TransGo parts. The torque converter is done and ready to pick up as well. It should only take a half day or so to get the transmission set up and back together.
I'm just waiting on the cams at this point, otherwise I would be close to having everything back in the car this weekend.
