    have you ever looked into any of the adhesives they use in autobody. 3m, lord fusor, evercoat and valvoline all make really good products. probly the best would be the evercoat since that one dont take a special gun, just a typical calking gun is all you need.

We aren't very confident we can make it as is...the motor/tranny is solid but it probably needs tires and who knows what else. Plus, the tailgating at that game is a joke...you have to be a donor or you can tailgate at the fairgrounds which requires you to shuttle there. We are staying like a block from the stadium, so we will see. Trafik Jamz;324605 wrote: Yeah, they went with a power supply from me. Must have done well, the forum quoted them as being the loudest tailgate rig there (paraphrasing a bit) saturday Yep, worked great. We just had generator issues so eventually the battery started crapping out but the PS worked most of the week while we were playing around with all of it. http://www.inforum.com/event/article/id/332773/publisher_ID/1/

    All basecoat is flat. If you want a matte finish use a flattening agent in the clear. Im not sure what you are going for but if you want a satin finish its easier to just use a single stage like Hot Rod Flats. If you want gloss go with a good base clear system.

    If it's carbed, you can swap in a weber carburetor for a few hundred bucks, makes a difference. These cars come standard with a vacuum hose nightmare under the hood. More information than you'll ever need is at www.3geez.com. The cars are near bulletproof when treated right, but if it needs a new tranny, chances are it hasn't been treated right. A few guys have done B-series swaps, if I remember right.

    I should have my MS-8 installed by the end of this week (assuming my wholesaler can get them in stock by then) and I'd be happy to do a comparison for whoever wants to hear what it can do for an otherwise stock sound system such as what comes in a 2011 Honda Pilot EX.
