Alabama thread!

I got ya! So when is the big move?

 

first part of the move is 12/13, but i gotta turn around and go back down to dothan the next day. I'll be back in hsv for good the 18th.

 

new market here

 

Welcome man! I know we have a couple members not to far from there, can't remember who though lol

 

where is new market again?

 

down the road about 30 minutes from hsv.

 

And I was thinking it was closer to trussville. I guess he has a bunch of members near him then.

 

How goes it, fellow Tacomians?

 

Kurt, Your still alive?

 

Ok BRIAN, I decided to go ahead and finish some more tree pinstripe removal on the passenger side of my truck. Since Brian said pictures or it didin't happen, here are some pictures.

After washing the truck, I sanded the bad spots. See below




After sanding, I then used some turtle wax rubbing compound, here is the first pass.



Second pass



Third pass, followed by polishing wax



and the finished result. I know you can't tell now or maybe you don't remember, but there were some wicked scratches all down the passenger side of my truck. This is how it looks now



Oh, and btw the paint and clear coat are ridiculously thin on the mirrors. This is what about 3 seconds of wet sanding with 2000 grit sandpaper did.



The mirrors are just going to have to stay scratched.

Not bad pictures for a phone don't you think? (and yes, that is an nsx in the background)

 

Wow that's pretty impressive.

 

x2. Shitty paint job, but that is one cellphone camera!

 

Where did you get the scratches from.................................

 

whats going on in here

 

nice truck justin so you have 2 new babies now

 

yes i do. thanks jo

funny thing is i plan on making the newest baby (the truck) a present for the other baby when he turns 16...... if all goes well. or at least that is what im hoping to do, pay it off then park it and put cash down for a new one in about 5 or 6 years and leaving this one in the driveway for another 10 years....... guess time will tell.

 

Hey guys, just representing T town. roll tide!

Jo Dog where do you work? that area in the pics look familiar, a strip mine maybe?

The hand-me-down car idea is what my family did. My sisters and I really appreciated it. Even the sister who got to drive this:


Stylin!
