Nice work. Now I know what need to do with my GT2 uprights that you beadblasted. I think it'll be a good winter project.

Do you also Windex the peep hole in your front door and clean out the goop in the dish soap bottle nozzle?

If it's the pic you sent me - I say post it

Beautiful work! I swear if my car looked like yours I wouldn't drive it (minus the jacked up rear bumper)

I believe you suffer from the same affliction.

Solid mahagony front door without a peephole. Dish soap? We use Xenit to clean our dishes.

Join us on one of our weekend runs out to WV and you'll see that I have no issue caning the car as it was intended.

It's sitting in the garage filthy from a weekend trip away with the wife a few weeks back. I purchased it in '05 with 33k on the clock. The last time I checked, the odometer showed 56k.

So yes, the car gets driven. I simply enjoy cleaning it as well, in addition to putting my own stamp on it.

What's wrong with that?

I'm not worthy to even look at these pics....

Seriously!

Nice job! Was the wife home when you used her oven for the carriers?
