www.clubnarp.com -> thread = "Start of a Beautiful Build" -> 4th page, 1/3 down is where Joe's (Series9) latest work on my car is well documented. Can't pick up the link to post up top. But it is in the "tavern" forum on club narp. I think the NARP thread is better than the Club thread. You can't use a direct link because it's a forwarded address. |

This is actually a really easy task. Let me break it down for you.
Step 1. purchase flares Step 2. load car on trailer with flares Step 3. drive to Richmond, Va Step 4. unload car and flares at Scotty's Step 5. remove wallet from pocket Step 6. Pay Scotty a really fair amount of cash Step 7. go home and drink beer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) Step 8. Take empty trailer and drive back to Richmond, Va Step 9. Give Scotty 4 cases of beer and 1 bottle of tequila Step 10. load car with beauitful professionally installed flares Step 11. Return home and unload car Step 12. Invite friends over to drink lots of beer and admire your awesome car. See, a lot easier than you ever imagined. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

It's easier to prime the inside of the flare off the car. Everyone is excited about getting their flares on, take a moment and prep and prime the inside first. the welding edge needs to be clean or weld through primer used.

McMark is doing mine. I like that he has done several others. Even taken them off, done rust repair and put them back on. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
