Stangman_NB
I have been contemplating just parking my bike behind our booth. I don't have the time to clean it properly and I highly doubt she is good enough to win.....even if I enter and park it at the booth, it still counts as an entry! biggrin.gif
Bacardi

or how about I like to do the work on my car myself. Paint needs alot more then wetsanding then buffing. needs a respray and a some rust repairs. Isnt worth have a full out buffing done to it.



dick face... I wasnt saying come get it done for you. I was saying come here where I have everything you could possibly need!



Steel wool that shit.... double or single ot is fine. then hit it up with either neverdull or Mother Aluminum/metal polish.



as for the paint, sand it all the way don to nothing and start over. I know it sounds like Im being lazy, but stick to two colors in the entire engine bay! it'll look much cleaner and more thought out.....plus its half the work because you dont have to tape then retape then tape again!









due to Neil's post I need to state that anyone coming to my house on saterday better be willing to work on their own cars or pay sarah to clean shit. I offer my place as a location and as my knowledge (limited as it may be) I also have many ways to get shit done for way less than buying things like say eyelids. If you come here expect to learn and do them. Junior that means you. I know kellz was thinking about coming up and may not be now. Adam was coming up, but her was coming to pay Sarah for a buff job. either that said...... this is a car club. I will help ANYONE here with their project. Derrick that means you, you lazy bastard!

1) Thats how your message came off to me. Thanks for the offer but I've basically have what I need here. Just was looking for an opinion on what to do with the raw aluminum.

2) Thanks I'll try that out. Sounds like a plan.

3) Nothing in my engine bay is being painted any other way than I have it now. I might touch up a spot or two that was scratched but thats if I have the paint. If I don't no big deal to me. The only thing I'm not happy with in my engine bay, color wise, is the couplers but they don't bother me that much so they will stay blue. Everything else is going to stay the green/black look with the gold writing on the plug cover. I've seen the plug covers with everything the same color and I dont like they way they came out so I'll keep the letters a different color to make them pop. If you think its too busy thats great. I'll like the way it looks and have recieved compliments from others on it and I'm happy with it as is. Rember I'm not pretending my car is a show car because it is far from it. All it is and ever will be, as long as I own it.
Sully
Sarah was right.... you = bitter gills!


i was giving you my opinion... do as you like. that car is easily a show car with some love. but its your car enjoy it and do what makes YOU happy! the raw aluminum polish it would be my .02
