        Well, painted some stuff today. The hood and the front bumper. I was just about ready to beat everything with a sledge hammer half way through though.
        Used some high build primer on the hood, but my spectacular harbor freight spray gun only works half of the time. So it will spray, then slowly die, then all of the sudden come back to life, making it very hard to get a good finish. It screwed up the hood pretty bad but I threw on some delphin afterwards just to see how it would look. I have a ton of work that needs to be done on the hood. Rust removal sucks and leaves a ton of marks:(
        But the plastic bumper came out OK. When I resand and use a little filler it should be about perfect. It sucks working out in a sandy yard:hitler:

          HF guns are tricky, have to practice on a scrap. How did you set it all up? Regulator and disposable dryer should be on the end of your gun...

          Took some pics of my dirty car :(

            I practiced on a scrap fender a week ago and it came out pretty decent. I cleaned the gun after I finished. Then I went to use it today and it almost made me crazy. I set it up like so. Compressor-->hose---->gun

            I think it has a regulator, if by regulator you mean an adjustable knob for air presure. If so, then it goes compressor-->regulator-->hose-->gun

            Im not sure what a dryer would be either.......

              Anyone have an LSD for sale. I have an M50 with G250 and maybe in the future going back to the G260, Im not sure what ratio would be best.

              I also need a Brake Booster for a swapped car, (ix, 944,e21) mine is bad and I do not feel like slotting the firewall for the stock one...


              Was that MTech II at the JY a Vert? I wish I found it complete, lol

                The one I saw was a coupe. Also I know of someone selling a 4.10 LSD if that would work out for you. Not sure if the ratio would work with your specs.

                          Be careful of who builds your engine. As some of you guys know we are working on the white Camaro that's got 10k on a "crate" motor from a "reputable" rebuilding company.

                          We had to go through some things on the motor, and am glad we did. Here's what the bearings looked like when we opened it up...
