1975_mini

Thanks, I saw where pd now has a primer. I think that will be a must next time. I plan on laying out a design on the white soon. I have a couple ideas I need to test before the picinic

Well, it was the pinion that went, and chewed up the splines on one of the axle in the process. Mini considers this all an enclosed system :banghead:, so ebony is getting a whole new transmission and axle. She should be back on the road Tuesday or Wednesday:rock:

thanks for sharing.

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:

I am surprised you can set your cruise control that high

Result of the lead car braking? How dare you use your brakes. Could have been worded better MINUSA

These are plug and play in 2009 or newer according the those that have installed them on NAM. http://www.waymotorworks.com/xenon-headlight-retrofit-kit-r55-r56-r57-r58-r59.html If OEM are 500 a piece from PMoA. You would paying the same but save the cost of labor.

Yeah, I have read about the smoke but have not have the time the play with it yet. I have only heard good things about it.

great idea, that looks great. almost a nickle effect:top: I will have to keep this one in mind.

I broke down and created an Instagram account just to follow this.

Thank you, Ali and Catalina

Any updates for DCMMer on the run? Those of us stuck in our cubicals want to live vicariously through you.

Just saw cricket in the service bay at PMoA when we were dropping off ebony

That's one way to pay for that escort

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

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.

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.

I think it's a great idea

I will keep an eye out on my next trip through the junk yard

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:

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.

Welcome back, and look forward to seeing you around

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.

We are all confirmed and ready to go. Look forward to seeing you all tomorrow
