Quick Dumps…

Latest

Gee

Haven’t moved the G35 in a long time. The FDF loosens up after a few miles, kills front tires, and makes the car feel like its totalled. I had parked it waiting for warm weather to go through it and tighten stuff. Last night I pulled the equips off. Two of the Grams have dead tires still from Fuel Fest so I put the VSXX on. The tire shop balanced them without me asking and destroyed my centers.

Trying to decide if I just do black replacements or red.

Plan…

I need to update this, but its the SC plan…

Stank Booty Revival: Turkey Butt…

Interior rounding out. Finished up the center console and dash pieces.

I was attempting to polish my shifter bezel and it got caught in the buffer. I’m going to have to glue it and do a Carbon overlay because prices on these have jumped.

Waiting on some interior clips to finish installing everything. I need to get some fiberglass to reinforce the door cards then wrap those and then I can turn my attention to the seats.

Stank Booty Revival: More interior…

Today I continued pulling parts to re wrap and clean up. I also pulled more of the old tint off. I’m still contemplating going with mirror, color, or just 50% ceramic to keep the interior from fading like it did.

I had flocked the center console grey. But it didn’t come out the way I anticipated and it didn’t stand up to use. So I started to remove the flocking so I can wrap it in the grey suede.

Started pulling old cloth off for fresh…

Stank Booty Revival: Independent George…

Can’t believe I wasted $32 on these. Titanium bolts for the spark plug cover.

Stank Booty Revival: Pump up the jam, pump it up…

While your feet are stomping
And the jam is pumping
Look ahead, the crowd is jumpin’
Pump it up a little more
Get the party goin’ on the dance floor
See, ’cause that’s where the party’s at
And you’d find out if you do that

Parts for the electric PS are coming in…

Stank Booty Revival: Headlining…

Ran out of spray adhesive. More gets here Thursday. Which is fine, I broke all the clips and those will be there Friday.

I bought a LVLP paint gun, and got my Pops old gun and compressor. No more paint shops?

Stank Booty Revival: Wrap…

In this episode I fail.

Not completely… but partially.

I started wraping interior pieces. The lower portions came out well but the upsers were just too intricate for my skill level. Additionally the material was too light.

My truck keeps picking up nails.

The material for my headliner came in. Loving the color.

Stank Booty Revival: Steps back…

I finally found a method to attack this overspray.  Razor blade, pick tool, masking tape, goof off auto gel, and steel wool.

Door sill gaskets I pulled off and scrubbed.

Under the car I sprayed with undercoat.

I took a break and started on the interior. I thought this would be motivational but I found quite a few issues. I thought the interior would be mostly dirty but I found that most of the bride material is sun faded as well as dirty. The body shop cracked the front of my seat, they had left the door open while it was in the shop and there’s a thick layer of shop dust and overspray all in the interior, the spot welds to bolt for the harness bar in the B pillar broke and it fell inside, the brackets to the radio broke while pulling it out. I had tried to flock the center console. But the adhesive wasn’t strong enough and the material is all over the interior. I’m going to have to order more cloth and redo all the parts that were already done. Ill also have to get better seat mounts to support the seat after I do some fiberglass repair.

While pulling the interior apart I found some stickers and passes from old drift series.

I bought a steam cleaner and some dye. Praying it comes out decent.

Interior up next…
