Is that the bolt holes? Did you weld the bolts in for the smooth look?

Re: Project '86
Little heavier than a guide coat. I wanted to clean it up for the show this weekend and we were short on white so we dusted it pretty heavy with some black. I like the black better than the white.

I take it your waiting on tires (or the money for them) so you can mount the 20s?

Nope, my buddy I bought the wheels from had just put brand new tires on.



I just finished polishing the last wheel today and we are supposed to get some rain this week so I'm going to wait until Friday to put them on so I don't have to polish them again before the show on Saturday.

Re: Project '86
you should paint it the gold colour it was when you first started i think that would look killer

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

Did the windshield bust while it was being cut? Everything looks awesome as usual man.

Yea, it had some rock chips in it so I figured I would take a go at cutting it myself. I figured it was no big loss if it broke since it had the chips anyway. Turns out I'm not such a good glass cutter

Now I just use it to keep the rain out.
