I've done Interior work in the past, So I tore into it today. Took the seats out (Fairly Good Condition - Will do Houndstooth Inserts as I have a bunch of Material), Put 2 Layers of RamMat, 1 layer of 1/4 inch foam, a layer of Dark Black Perlon. I then reattached the center section of the back-pad with Velcro. For some reason the center section sitting in the Sun created it's own Ghost-Flames - Weird

Some hints of the "RumbleBee ®" future

The Beck Body Kit that I'm getting back. There are only 3 Kits that I know that were ever Made. Two of which went to the Beck kids Randy & Dave. - I owned the Light Blue car a few years ago, sold it to lack of room and am getting the BodyKit from Grasshopper in a couple of weeks

Also had some Great Comedy today. Steve (smg914 - King of the 471s) stopped by with the GT3RS. He Stalled & Killed it out front. The 914 fired up every time - Thank you very much.

Steve, your Welcome for me helping get that POS on it's way (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)

That makes 4. It will be in Demand after this build. Tough to ship - being only two piece - very easy to install though.

My - To Do List for the day

Repair shifter - it has an old school short shift that the epoxy broke loose - Check

Mount Black Bumpers w/ best bumper tops I had, also RennenMetal front aux Fog mounts - Check

This actually took me longer than expected - there was only one dog-bone used on the previous bumpers and it took me an hour to locate my bag o 20 dog-bones & bolts (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)

Go to DMV, Title & Register the car - Had to go twice, the real cute girl already cutomers, so I had to do with the Pikers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif)

Assorted other stuff.

Mounted 1 Mirror
Mounted the P/S Seat Belt on the D/S temp as the D/S Belt mech spring was shot
Mounted the Rear Center reflector - I hate these things, but I didn't want to weld up the holes. I drimel'd a hole in the relector & remounted a lock mechanism, getting rid of the electro-buzzer

Got to go pick up the 2.8 Twin-Plug RSR motor tomorrow

That body kit looks much better on the slope nose.

I agree and that is why it is the Perfect Storm for me to unite my Old Beck kit with this Slope-Nose

Oh, great buy! I wanted to purchase that car but I bought two cars this year already.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I know you buy cars every chance you get but you seem to resell them. When I get stuff it never seems to leave. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Do you have a set of those wheels that are on the Beck car?
