I saw on his web site that he had a-pillar trim listed. My car has a very snug fitting cage. Snug enough that getting the a-pillar trim in is not going to be easy. I may have to so some twisting and turning of the trim to get it in. Guessing that that if I had to twist and turn the trim to get...

Thanks, I will call Instrument Specialties. The shop I put the link to is only about 40 minutes from me. Not sure I am going to keep the factory dash. Pad...well...lets just say it is a train wreck. Car has a cage. Only thing left of the pad was the metal. When my friend did the paint and body...

When the body and paint was getting done on our Dart I got new glass. EZ, who has passed away had the glass installed. Both leaked a small amount of water when it got washed. The guy that put them on tried 3 times, couldn't get them to not leak. Second place tried twice...still drips. Window...

Thanks Was not clamped down while welding on it. Was hoping to weld some exhaust tube on the lower corners to shield the thermometers I want to install but that ain't gonna happen now. Will put the thermometers on the body of the smoker. Have a neighbor that does bodywork, may just go...

Had it clamped down for a while, released it and it was still straight. Checked on it later on and the bow had returned. Was not as bad as it was...

Warping. It is clamped down right now, will go out and release it in a couple of hours.... The alignment of it is off.....but is from the warping. I am planning on making a RTV gasket for it so if it does not sit completely flush/square will not be a problem...

My issue has 0 to do with a car body but it is metal related. Working on my reverse flow smoker. It is based on a 60 gallon air tank compressor. It is built out of 1/8th inch mild steel. I cut the door out of the cylindrical portion of the tank. When I first cut it the door section fit like it...

There is a NAPA that deals only with paint I believe here in Spokane. At least I think there is. There is a real good paint supply house on Market St., http://www.nationalautobody.com/catalognab/ Kevin is a great guy to deal with. Thanks for the info on the plastic wrap. A neighbor is going...

I never pull the soap nozzle out of the pressure washer so I don't have any troubles with gunk getting past seals... Visited my buddy at NAPA today. His store hasn't mixed paint in 20 years or so. He has a lacquer ready to squirt clear coat....

Frame and swingarm will be powder coated. The clear will just be for the fuel tank, oil tank and both fenders...

Thanks. Meant to ask the NAPA I deal with but forgot when I was last there. Plan is for it to be a short term thing...but knowing me it will become permanent. Thanks to the dirt road the chopper gets washed with a pressure washer. Have a pump style weed sprayer filled with Simple Green. Spray...

Should have provided more info...sorry. Going to try to get all the parts pulled from my chopper and swapped to the other frame over next winter. Going to have a bare fuel tank, oil tank and fenders. Don't want to put any $$ into the body work until after the bike is ridden and any bugs that...

Local company wraps all sorts of vehicles....

When my body guy tried to shoot clear on the hood of the Dart it just never looked right......too glossy, uneven/splotchy looking among other troubles...thinking I may just box up everything I want done and keep the Mistress of Metal busy for a little while....fenders, oil tank, fuel tanks...

Planning on the bike being flat/semi gloss black. Would like for it to not have the roughness/texture of a typical hot rod type of black. Is there a clear coat that is meant for hot rod black? When I had the car painted EZ had 0 luck with clearing my hood. Thinking about having The Mistress of...

My glass hood sits just like "C's"....EZ spent several hours messing with it, different hinge etc before throwing the towel in.
