    FINALLY bought a monster lvl2 clutch, flywheel, slave cylinder, bearings and hardware. Then some BS happened with life. Then Christmas happened. Now its below freezing outside so I'm not working in the back shop so it will start getting put together next week hopefully. Unless some recently...

    And you wont blind oncoming traffic with your headlights that look like two mini suns barreling down on them.

    Pulled the fenders Did a seat for a rich old guy with a lot of hotrods. Next to the truck. Botched a couple shift knobs, going to try a different resin next time. Did some more sanding on my speakerbox.

    NV3500 problems

    Honestly the best thing to do is pull the trans back out, check your clutch, flywheel, TO bearing. It sucks, but it's not like the truck drives, so downtime depends on how fast you find the problem. Sorry to hear about your luck.

    Going to have to pull the fenders and run spacers. Rear lower control arm clearance. No pics of the coilover clearance, but it touches when I jump in the trunk. The front wheels wont even spin freely because they are hitting the springs.

    Look like it lol. So I'm guessing your sig is just chevy trucks of past and present, and you don't have more vehicles than a dealership.

    Polyester resin. A lot of manufacturers of clear shift knobs use acrylic resin, but I like polyester because it is more dense. I'm actually probably going to start 2 more tonight with dice instead of bugs. You can find molds online or make your own out of silicone. A s13 coupe would be cool...

    Firewall hammered. Hopefully it's hammered enough. Engine and transmission need to go in together, so I don't want to have to pull it back out because it isn't hmmered enough.

    It took about an hour and a half to get the tank full, temp to 75*F, tape boarder measured to 30"x22" in the tank and film cut out to 28"x20". Film is only 19" wide, but the tape overhangs a half inch on both sides. I probably could have used less than 28" of film, but you have to go in at a bit...

    Most definitely would appreciate vids. I want to learn everything I can, but know so little I'm not sure where to start. I know how to operate the machine, but that's about it lol. I've switched from chalk to tape for straight lines. I know it ruins the needle if it hits the tape, but I've yet...

    ^ Thank you! With my roommate in Europe I have no one to tell me what I'm doing wrong and how to improve it. Everyone else I know doesn't know anything about upholstery so they just say "looks good to me." Nail on the head with watching the needle lol, I'm so bad at that. I don't know how to...

    You forgot to mention that it's the messiest stuff ever lol. Well I laid it down and it laid down smooth, but my center line got all messed up when I put the the airbag cover in, and I forgot to trim the excess near my seams and it bugged the crap out of me. So I pulled it back up. I tried...
