2 new pics from my project
http://home.satx.rr.com/mr3plus1/Project21.jpg
Interior is mostly gutted (i couldnt get that last wiring harness to seperate from the door and didnt wanna break the clips, so I'll just hang it out of the way when I do the rubberized undercoating in the interior. http://home.satx.rr.com/mr3plus1/Project22.jpg Ive got a lot of paint to remove. Also ordered my pettit flares today. |

Im kinda stuck in a weird situation. What should I do about those stickers in the door sill? Do you really need those?
|
no...but if you want to keep them, just put masking tape over them before you paint
|
cool
|
The only reason I ask is they've got some chunks missing out of them (someone must have bumped something into them) and its showing the red paint underneath. Im painting the whole car white. And being the OCD perfectionist I am, that'd bug the shit out of me. Hrm....Maybe I'll just save the tire pressure one so it still looks somewhat official.
|
why are you sanding it to the bare metal?
|
Damn, I hope you remember how to put humpty dumpty together again :D
What's under the hood? |

sand blaster ftw :shooter: wish i had a garage for projects
|
Are you trying to take ALL the paint off? If so, why not just use a chemical stripper?
|
dont take to long to strip and prime because bare metal will flash rust very quickly.

no just the hood.

Nice project, a panel popper is your friend. Looks like a flat head screw driver and a fork crossbread. Any autobody store sell them, eastbay.com...
|
That's the way to work on them, gut it
|
(rubberized undercoating in the interior) ..... can you be more specific?

damn, it just now hit me how long its going to take to put that interior back together...don't lose any bolts |
Looks like a nice project so far!
|
looking good. Can't wait to see the finished product!
|
You can order new stickers if you don't want to tape them up. I ordered a couple when my car went from red to blue.
|
I think maybe you can get new stickers from Victoria British, but not sure

double as a rust inhibitor and sound deadener also. As much weight saving as Im doing, I still want to quiet the inside of the car down some. Im waiting on some stuff similiar to the interior tar pieces to wrap the tranny tunnel with also. |

I don't know how much heat an LS1 motor radiates but the rotary puts out alot and it gets pretty hot in the interior. Why not go with the heat barrier mat instead of undercoating?
