You told me you were working yesterday.

Also picked up some Krud Kutter (best cleaner brand ever btw) Degreaser as my prep solvent and some 1000-2500 grit sandpaper to finish up the custom OEM button. Going to finish the painting as soon as it warms up a bit. I started an album with picks of the progress thus far :tup:

Warm up? You're in Texas. How much warmer do you need it? :rofl2: I'm in the garage doing fibreglass work and running my milling machine... Insulated but no heater, its 19F right now. :tup:

Milling eh? I guess you are really serious about beating me this year. :stirthepot: I might have to get an upper pulley, larger injectors, cam, and tune.

Not for me... for the products I am going to be using (namely spray paint). The automotive touchup paint recommends 70F-100F temps for use. I waited until 60F - I figure that's good enough for test project :icon17:

It was 40F this morning - I went to Lowe's and Advance Auto in shorts and short sleeves :tup:

Dam if I do that I have to get a larger TB and polished blower snout. Oh no I'm headed to 700 rwhp with that combo.

Nah, I'm not looking to beat anyone. I wouldn't have put the dash back in if I was. :stirthepot:

I would love to live somewhere that I could wear shorts 365 days of the year. Maybe when I fully retire. I hear Arizona is nice :tup:
