Replace and treat inside of Gas Tank, install new CF/ Fuel Lines. 3) Replace Doors, Windshield, Install Spartan Street/DE Interior, Sparco Vintage Seats, New Console, MoMo Wheel. 4) Prep car for Paint, all panels prepped, Hood, Trunk, Doors, Targa Top. 5) Replace & Upgrade all Suspension, Brakes, Bushings, Wheels & Tires. |

Nice photo TC, she will look good again with those Fuchs, somewhere down the road.
Thanks for the photo! Believe it or not I was able to get that dashboard out without cracking it and keeping all the plastic studs intact? Dr. Phil, The welding thing did not go so well today, the 220 volt Male connector on the Miller TIG did not match up to my generator, nor did it match up to the Dryer? After much research.... the classic Amp versus breaker issue, so I will need to run a 220 volt receptacle into the garage that has a 50 amp breaker. My panel is in the mud/laundry room right off the garage so this should not be that much drama. I was reading up on prices from guys that have rewired to handle the charging of their new TESLA's, so their estimates on pricing should be pretty up to date. I can run the wires in romax and mount the receptacle, the electrician can wire it up in the box and I can burn metal soon hopefully. I did get a chance to sharpen up some tungsten's today and continue to set up the garage. Sometimes you have to crawl before you can run. Dr. Phil, I have a MIG & a TIG now so if you have any questions or need something welded, I am only 10 or 11 hours away or you can send it to Bonita. Formula 1 in the USA this weekend, just wish I did not have to work through the weekend, that's what the DVR is for. Vy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/yellowsleep[1].gif) soc |
