y'all need some of this to keep the size of those there piles under control? 

Some days, after work. Id take you up on those.

My wife is happy with the fact that the piles of parts to leave our property is growing exponentially. However,  she hasn't asked what is coming.....

Ooooo not good Cuz, I'm understanding that she reads your threads just sayin'

For some reason I feel the need to add to my Northbound pile.

Free-based LS intake?

i got to make vroom vroom noise this morning after finishing the console and seat rebuild.  I like it. 

Coming together nicely! 

Thanks! Im mostly pleased with it! Someday i will find better parts. And swap them in. But for now, good enough!

Roof respray tonight if the weather holds 

ghost neon says boo!!!

Driveway is damn near as good as the booth! Hood being hung was a bad idea, hence sanded down and reshot

Hooray.  I still think art should spray his hat blurple

Lol. He painted rocks for marys rock collection. Does that count?

Also, $29 harbor freight gun on a 50ft airhose in a gravel driveway 

Obvious that there was no primer involved. How far down did you sand and with what grits?

Perseverance, thy name is Michael.

800 grit to knock the shine, peel, and trash off. Then wiped a lot with wax and grease remover,  taped, wiped, and shot. 

Thats what art said to do in this case, so thats what we did!

Because I know nothing about painting, but a couple times recently when I've been using a rattle-can on the driveway I've been concerned about overspray - how far is generally considered a "safe" distance to spray away from other vehicles?

Generally we go for 50 ft minimum. However, reality with base clear outdoors in our climate is more like 15-20. There will still be the potential for overspray to hit, but more than likely will be dry when it does. Rustoleum stays wet far longer.

having trouble focusing today....
