Great progress as always Brent.


That's wild. Must be some kind of karma connection there but I'm not sure what.

Another quick project here. I'm a little shocked I still have this but looking kind of ratty.

A bit of the magic 303 treatment. I had to work really hard not to make it too perfect so @Superhawk996 doesn't go into another patina rant. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

I’m guessing the first grade lunchbox was Rocky and Bullwinkle.

It's a factory rust inhibitor.

Or a black plastic rectangular object.

I think that both are technically correct. Kinda like "Who are three people who have never been in my kitchen"?

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner! but factory rust inhibitor is also correct. Now I just need a stcker as seen on Jeff Bowlsby's site. I don't even know if this will fit on the Optima battery yet but hopeful.

@cuddy_k 's sticker was on the underside of the rain tray IIRC. First time I had ever seen one. I would reach out to @Bart.Car-Bone to make the reproductions. Also @bdstone914 was talking about replicating the Bosch ECU decals.

Yep. Mine's on the rain tray. One of the POs had my car in dry storage for over 20 years so the stickers fared pretty well. I just sent @bdstone914 a pic of my ECU decal. Also here...

@cuddy_k Interesting. Sometime when you are near your car with a ruler handy, any chance you could grab dimensions of that sticker on the rain tray? I think I will see what CarBone can do on this.

I'm going to regret this

This goes against me better judgement because it is just an invitation for more of you jack-asses to get online to heckle me. Tomorrow at 1pm eastern time it looks like I'm the scheduled intermission act for Quaranteener Fest with a live tour of my car. Deets are here: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?s=&...t&p=2812941

First one to be called a dick gets a... ah crap, no, I'll try to keep it clean. That should be interesting.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

To those of you who weren't able to attend the live video tour of Brent's car, shop and processes:
Take the time to watch the recording. As you know from this thread, it's amazing what he's achieved and the video is frosting on an already delicious cake!

Great job, @bbrock ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)
