More Fun With Paint

Well, she's a friend of our great next door neighbor and is a mom of a 7ish year old girl so the stock Prius seems to be about all she can handle. And...

I can relate. Harry the Paint Guy does a great job for the price but you won't take any prizes at Autorama with his work (just right for a DD). I've shot...

It's a long story but I ended up helping a friend of a friend fix a Prius rear bumper cover. We picked up a non-torn one at PnP then I decided to do the...

So sorry to hear this. AS I've said before I guess us old-timers are getting to that age.

Happy Birthday to Don!

If your stuff was any prettier it would be illegal. Jealousy all over the place......

On the line repair: Go to your Parker store and get one of their INSTRUMENT GRADE compression fittings, NOT the hardware store ones like what failed on...

Beautiful work as always!

Done did that. I actually own the proper tool (an "H" shaped deal with adjustable measuring rod) and I used it. The booster rod has about...

An FYI - The belts with a single bolt, you can weld a bolt to the cage centered on the seat back and bolt it down with a nylox of the ol' double nut trick....

[DanStokes]

That looks excellent - better than store bought. You nailed it!

I should have saved some of those punch slugs from back in my working days. We recycled pounds of those and they would have been free for the taking....

So true, and she is! She's SO HAPPY to have her Nellie back. She drives Vanna OK but is not as comfortable in her as in Nellie. Our local shop was...

And the finish line. Pretty happy with the body gaps though I'd like the back of the rear door to be in about 1/8" but the striker is out of adjustment...

[DanStokes]

The video is great fun. The DIL has skills! Is that a Ural sidehack?

We don't have infinite money but we've found we can get along quite...

[DanStokes]

Thanks! Putting doors together but I'll have to wait for the new speakers to finish the front door. I'll probably take the inner panel off the rear...
