Not to answer for Matt here, but he has put AC into this. It was covered awhile back on here. You need to look how he did it, was pretty darn good if you ask me .

I got the antenna from Cruiserdan, it is an OEM attenna for an FJ40. I got the idea from Landpimps lv.

As far as A/C Darin is right, got it and installed a few months back....did my own thing on that one.

Looking good Matt!

I'm his sister and I thought I'd spy on his cruiser progress from down in Dallas. Even I'm impressed and I don't know squat about cruisers.

By the way, its Matt's birthday today. Happy Birthday Matt! :beer:

Loser ;p

When you get to be my age your not supposed to say stuff like that :flipoff2:
 
Happy birthday Matt?!


Now this thread has sibling spite!!!


Gotta love it!


:beer:


So what are ya, 45 now?
 
Guess we are going to have to guess on his age, seing as he does not put the year. He can either be 45 or 65, seeing that is the year model of this project.
 
Well, got home and had big plans this evening and lining up my work for the weekend.......getting pumped for a little headliner install! The plan was to vinyl prep and spray that dye I bought and then give it a few days to dry and start installing Friday night!!!

Got home and took out my brand new Sphincter off-road headliner I bought when I drove out to there place back in Sept. when I was in California.....and then Sphincter lived up to it's name :eek:

Someone took a marker and drew on the back side about a foot in from the edge and it transfered to the other side, quite well and prominent may I ad :frown:

I tried many chemicals to get it off.....tried soap and water first.....nothing...then the vinyl prep...nothing....then DX330...nothing....then laquer thinner.....then it started to make a mess...

So, that idea is shot while I get on the horn with SOR tomorrow and figure out what they want to do with $250 of scrap material.......??

No headliner install for the weekend and I really wanted to do that, especially before I filled the interior with more stuff.....I'll see if SOR will step upto the plate and red label it to me so I can have it Friday, but they have screwed up more than 1 thing for me before and have never done anything in the past to make it right. I blame myself a bit though, I should have check it sooner and I should have made one myself......ya, I know I'm bitter :rolleyes:

You know when you say between 30 - 40 it is always closer to 40.:D :D :D

i'v used rc5 many times, very powerful on inks.

This might sound strange but in High school I took a laundry class my freshman or sophmore year and we would use hairspray to get out ink in clothes.. Might be worth a shot or something like Shout stain remover? only if they don't come thru.. Might want to talk directly to Marv he is the man and will probably take care of you.
