Been playing with the photo imaging packages available. Almost there but not quite. Will keep trying.Car has a slightly different exterior look to it.Interior has changed as well. My midlife crisis of two years ago doesn't seem to be abating. Bought the car as a driver like the one I had in high school. First year we tore it apart for body, paint & front end. This year I started out looking for a few misc. pieces. Ended up with: rebuilding trans.,disc brakes,battery cables,map light mirror,8-track, bucket seats,alternator,rechromed dash & radio bezels, rebuilt correct carb.,Am/FM radio,shorty console,litter container-NOS,guages,clock,AC switches-NOS,woodgrain dash stickers,door edge guards-NOS, bumper guards front & rear-NOS,Custom rocker & rear quarter mouldings,sill plates-NOS,sport wheel,dash, column & dashpad redyed/painted,front speaker-NOS, rear speaker,carpet-was new last year but the buckets warranted it,better side markers,correct wheel centres,repro overflow tank,sport mirrors. Shake my head when I think what's already planned for next year. I can justify this to the little Mrs.........right. Sometimes I think a serious gambling habit would have been a lot cheaper. Wouldn't trade it though.....nothing like going for a ride.
Sounds perfectly normal to me steve :TU: If she balks, just remind her who wears the pants .......... Ya know, like I do with my wife...wait a minute........... she's the only one in the family with a Buick right now :3gears: what happened to me....aaaahhhrrrggggg :rant: :spank: D. :laugh:
Great! Two positive responses is really,really good. Had to give myself a little reality check here.Looks like I'm not alone. I'll use this to get in out of the doghouse someday this winter! Let me see....in the Spring out comes the engine for detailing. Have over half the engine parts already repainted..intake, timing cover, powder coated exhaust manifolds etc.. Rechromed bumper in transit as we speak. Pair of hinges & a hood latch @ TSP for restoration. Better grille,valve covers, in transit....:grin: Anyone out there talented on resizing the original pic I used for my avatar? Tried a couple more times, keeps losing definition & the chrome looks all funny.
Steve, Email your picture to me & I'll see what I can do. draena710@sbcglobal.net Beth :grin: And as Dana says "It's easier to ask for forgivness then it is to ask for permission" :laugh: :laugh:
Much better, Thank you for the help. Ah.....yes..I did check here first. Tell me how did you figure that one? I'm 41, married almost 20 years & still can't predict what my wife Jane is thinking at times. Most times a good guess is pretty close but other times she thinks I came from the planet Mars. Thanks again to Bath & Dana
