Do you guys offer these washers? Also, Are you still selling the black under hood paint, I sent a PM back on 9/2016 and no one ever got back with me @Dutchboys.

:lol: I looked over their website and agree they make some very nice stuff. Items I've seen before, but didn't know where they came from. Maybe be placing an order when the time comes.

Thanks guys. Jim put a lot of time into getting things to fit decently. Beyond my expectations.

Exactly! Not cheap by any means. :G-Dub:

I like those! Add a some black 12pt's and it could look pretty slick. New fad about to hit and you're to blame!

:grouphug:

Jim swapped ends of the car to work on for a few. He's added the spoiler and polished the tail end of the car. Good way to keep moving forward and a fresh set of eyes when working on things. The trunk rubber was just installed, and is holding the lid a little high at the moment, but it still looks pretty good to me.

Applying a very thin coat of vaseline to the rubber when new -- allows it to "move" and find it's natural home... and it's easy to clean off -- I'm talking THIN --- you're not greasing up a baby's butt here.

Looking awesome Curtis! :gitrdun:

:lol: That's a good idea. I'll pass it along.

Thanks Brother. :captain:

You and Mario can now get together --- you can pack your cars away in cotton balls and look at them in a museum like setting -- because they're too nice to drive.

Hey I have a bottle of that in my garage too! but I don't have anything that shiny to see a reflection in..... SWEET!!

Not sure what Mario's plan is, but there will have to be some of that clear bra stuff applied to my car. Ugh.....

Jim uses a small cordless drill looking buffer with a small pad on it. The pad is about 3" is diameter. I know he has a few options at his disposal, but that's the only one I've seen. I've been looking at Autogeek and will probably end up with a kit of some sort to keep the car looking decent.

They have a get together once a month and pull cars in to the shop to give demonstrations...they've got some great gadgets, if you're into that kind of thing.
:thumbsup:

There's always Vaseline! :idea: :lol:

Car is coming out superb Curtis. Can't wait to see it in person!

:cheers:

Good info! Bookmarked. Thanks.

Maybe during SEMA.....if you show up.

:eek: what would you call it Brokeback desert :flashie:

That's my buddy Sam there admiring the spear molding was installed last night. It's down to a few details.

Mario...I'll hang with you any day Bro! :cheers: :happy23: :_party:

The scheduling gods have smiled upon me and I have a three day weekend. Timing is good, as Jim is just about finished with the final items on his punch list and the car will be ready. So I'll head out Friday morning.

Car appears to be cleaning up nicely and I'm pretty excited to get it home....well over to Jeffs shop so we can start working on it. :D

Paint looks phenomenal!

Fantastic!

Sweet!

Yeah, it'd be fine traveling home on an open trailer... :D

Looks fantastic!!!

Thanks guys. Jim has done a great job. I am lucky to have him on my team.

:guns: NOPE! :lol:

Not sure what Jim has remaining on his list of things to do, but it's looking fairly complete to me. Looking forward to the road trip out and back to make the swap.

Rear bumper and reverse lights installed out back and the wiper cowl is installed up front.

:D

Door handles and side mirrors are in place...kinda. Looks like the side mirrors are the wrong ones. Shouldn't have the bow tie on them. The passengers side mirror was broken at some point. Came out of a perfect box, wrapped in bubble wrap. I have another set here that will go on the car when I get to Jims.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I bet you will be as excited as a kid going to Disneyworld on your drive to pick it up:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

And nervous. :lol:

Taking my wheels with me, so I'm looking forward to seeing it sitting on them. Leaving the rollers behind for Johns car.

Looks awesome!

Mike

WOW that is really looking good Curtis. Cant wait to see it with the wheels on it sitting on the ground.

Thanks gents. Having to work today is killing me. I am so ready to hit the road!

:headspin:

Your car oozes quality Curtis. :thumbsup:

Plus you now have more than 1/4 of the page views that the bmf camaro has, which is nice.

:P

Haven't you got tired of that drive yet? :lol:

:lol: I hadn't looked, but yeah almost 116k! :lostmarbles:

Not really. As crazy as it may sound, I kind of like view from the road. I've seen so much of the world from the air. Two totally different experiences. I notice something new on every drive out that way. Besides, there are good people a fun car and a cool dog (sam) on the far end and I always enjoy spending time with them.

:happy23:

It is Friday you better be on the road by now, I can not wait to see it sitting on it's wheels!!! safe travels today

:lol: I'm up! I'm up! Headed out here Ina few.

I can't wait to see pictures with the wheels outside in the sun. Have a safe drive.

The day you have Impatiently waited for is finally here. :action-smiley-027:

:popcorn2: any time now......
