Project MOVIESTAR

[scorcher1967]

It is home, took some more pictures. It sure is a great feeling to finally be at this point...painted, ready to assemble...now, where did I put all the parts........

 

[NikP]

Very nice. Jealous. I'm still in the prime, sand, repeat phase but this gives me motivation.

Great looking pig...good luck with the reassembly!

 

[bobm]

NICE,NICE,NICE. Things happen for a reason. Probably why 2nd painter was the one.

The journey of reassembly starts with sorting through the parts. Then cleaning the parts. That journey started today.

 

[PabloCruise]

Awesome! I cannot wait to see!

You are welcome to come by anytime TJ!

I will be looking for help getting the tailgate installed soon. I am so worried about scratching the new paint, I will want as many hands as possible on that little project. Of course, beer and balls at Bruce's for anyone who helps!

 

[PabloCruise]

True that bobm.


I am dying being so far away right now.
Can't understand what this feels like, much less describe it.
Just wish I was there.

 

[PabloCruise]

Awesome!

Steering column, pedal support, brake booster and master cylinder, e-brake installed today.





This little bastard took me 2 hours to find. One of the rare times a part was not in the bag with it's related parts.

It ain't the ones that are lost and then found. It's the three or four left over after you think you're done. Ask me how I know.

 

[Elyse LC]

<----I know where this part is!

 

[PabloCruise]

So cool!!!

 

[scorcher1967]

Another morning of cleaning and sorting. Picked out the best parts. One of these things will not be used, guess which one?



Useable ones


Ugly, but at this point has to be used.


All the exterior lighting hardware.


the horror!

Jason/Elyse,

If you guys want, I have a couple spares. One is stock color, but has small cracks around the square hole. The bottom one has been painted, but far better shape. Pick one and I'll send it out. Free to the cause.

Ron you are one of nature's noblemen, worthy of the title Knight of the Iron Pig.

I leave the choice to Jason, but I have been bummed by that housing for as long as I've owned my pig (1990). Of course the rust encroachment far surpassed it in terms of bummability.
