I didn't take any pics of this step, but I cracked open my AutoAtlanta 'all the seals' special tonight...that's a lot of seals for $600! I laid them all out, and spent a few min figuring out what is what. I'm going to put the seals in the doors and trunks before I leave tomorrow...hope I can figure all these out!
Dude...I repainted mine to keep up with YOU! |

I'm going to take some today, as I'm putting them back on. People knocked it when I was buying it, but let me tell you...it's pretty nice. The seals I was worried about were the main windshield seal, the front hood, and the door seals. All look great, and I think the one for the windshield is OEM. |

Me thinks people were probably knocking you more on the fact you were buying ANYTHING from AA. I'm personanly waiting for them to fold so I can buy their 916 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif) |

doug has it easy for one thing... his wife is in her residency ( sp ) to be a doctor so she is not home much and when she is she is a sleep. he does not have to hear her complain about him spending so much time in the garage.
good job so far doug maybe you will have a 914 for the wcc, with out buying it AT the wcc |

Yeah, with her gone for 36hrs every 4 days, it's easy to get a lot done. I just time UPS/FedEX shipments so they arrive when she isn't home. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) What do you mean WCC....I'm going to be done this weekend! |

GIANT progress today...I'll post pics tomorrow.
Got the car back from paint...looks amazing. Installed all new seals...all of them. Put the Valances, Bumpers and Rocker panels back on. Installed the rear window. Installed all the door glass. Replaced the felt in the door for the windows. Installed Dynamat in about 80% of the interior. DEAD quiet in there now. More to come tomorrow! |

Two points to make:
1. Capt tripps was a blur at the sawsall party in Cleveland. Even if doing something; out of order, against better advice or just plain wrong, he was still twice as fast as everyone else. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) He has no patience for down time. It's not about his wife or his job or anything...It's just the way he is! 2. Why do we have to wait for tomorrow??!!
