    Should I bother?

    I've used plasti dip before and really thought about it after seeing what they did to that old chevy truck. There is a shop not far from me and I could check into a semi clear. I guess it wouldn't be much to sand off when it comes time for a paint job. I saw a video here that was taken during...

    Cruisin the Coast 2015

    If you see a big yellow 70 Polara Convertible with a big guy in it tell him Damon says hello. I missed it again this year. Makes me sick. Next year though, I'll have my 63 Catalina ready.

    Should I bother?

    I bought this 1963 Catalina in Daytona Beach last year at the Turkey Rod Run. We've gone thru the transmission, brakes, electrical and suspension so far and want to take it back down to Daytona for the rod run again this year. I bought it for its character. I like the worn look but at some point...

    Old school aluminum wheels

    I'm thinking I could get that a harbor freight or any other hardware store? That looks perfect. I found replacement hardware so I may have them checked and straightend and go to town. Thanks.

    Old school aluminum wheels

    Got mine. Having a ball

    Thanks for all the comments. I took it out on a ride to the parts store and ended up talking to a guy who's father had one just like it. One thing led to another and now his father has another one just like he used to have. They couldn't believe how clean it was. I was modest and said I washed...

    Chance to WIN Wolfgang Deep Gloss Total Concours Kit!

    I'm game. Always heard good stuff about it and now I have a black truck with really old paint it would be cool to try it out.

    Got mine. Having a ball

    Yes. The porter cable 7424XP. Mike, I was never a ford guy until the 68 F100 I had and was talked out of in Daytona at the Rod Run last year. I know I can get more depth out of it but I'm learning with this machine and I will be reading up on the different products as my excursion is dark red...

    Got mine. Having a ball

    No way am I a pro detailer but with this machine it makes me look like one. I've used the old huge orbital for years. I do know how to use a high speed and have used one with success but it freaks me out each time as I don't want to damage the paint. I recently picked up a 1969 F100 that is...
