  1. Decided this past weekend to address the burgundy seats in Watson. They were the last remaining piece of his original triple red look (exterior, upholstery, and carpet) a true 70's look. The vinyl was starting to shows some tears, and really go with the blue car and black carpet and door cards. I bought some inexpensive cloth upholstery the give the first try, and below are the results. I will likely replace with vinyl or leather down the road now that I have a good pattern from this attempt. I have definitely improved my sewing skills if nothing else. I still has the backseat to do:frown:
  2. I am surprised you can set your cruise control that high
  3. Result of the lead car braking? How dare you use your brakes. Could have been worded better MINUSA

  10. Just saw cricket in the service bay at PMoA when we were dropping off ebony
  11. That's one way to pay for that escort
  12. It has light texture. If you are looking to go smooth, there are broader nozzle they sell. Also laying it heavier and faster creates a smooth effect. I went light texture do to it being a large horizontal surface. So it hides the dust and other issue doing it out in the open cause
  13. Phase 1 complete:top: 4 cans of PD, now some planing and testing for phase 2. If you dream it you can PD it. Hopefully it will be ready to unveil at the annual pininic.
  14. I have been debating a white roof on Watson and decided to pull the trigger this afternoon. Before Lets get started Coat 1 Coat 2 and end of Can 1 End of Can 2 (photo smooths it out still a bit blotchy) Out of PD and day light. Lesson learned white takes more to cover. Looks like a morning run the pick up another can, and finih the job.
  15. I think it's a great idea
  16. I will keep an eye out on my next trip through the junk yard
  17. passed a countryman (blue w/ white stripes) vanity plates "quantco". They live in q-town, but first time i passed her on the road. She gave a full windshield wave, so I returned it with a hand out both windows wave back.:hello2:
  18. Kids plans changed, so we have to do the parent thing tomorrow. Sorry to bow out last minute, we were really looking forward to this one.
  19. Welcome back, and look forward to seeing you around
  20. Thank you everyone for coming out yesterday, it was great to see old faces and a few new ones. Special thanks to Craig and Lona for allowing us to use the garagemahal and demonstrating your mastery of the smoker. All the tint looked great, and for those that did get tint done keep those windows up. Also give us a review of your tint in a week or two. Feel free to give Wardyl a review on his webpage mentioned above. Again thank you everyone for making this event a success.
  21. We are all confirmed and ready to go. Look forward to seeing you all tomorrow
  22. James (Burgrave of Fells Point) or anyone that has contact with him in other ways please contact me to confirm your spot.
  23. Two quick things: Some may have seen Catalina's post of Carlos passing, which I am sorry to hear. To prevent any confusion we had scheduled through a different mobile tint company for this event and the event is still on. Also James (Burgrave of Fells Point) can you please confirm your spot for the event either by responding to the PM I sent or on here. I would like to finalize everything today. So I can provide confirmed final numbers to the tint company, thanks.
  24. He I first on the waiting list, and if he is coming for the coding. And if the tinting goes a little quicker they might be able to scueeze him in. Craig's likely not going to take the full alotted time
  25. The import call that Tyler and I were both in was won by a straight factory 2013 Fiat 500 abath. The owner work for the office putting on the event, so he scored the fiend vote. Still any day I am at a car show instead of work is a good day
