Good stuff

I'm running the Con-fer rack and also used the same seam sealer. It will goosh out where the rack feet sit. I had some aluminum strips from somewhere that I cut down to about 4 1/2" that I laid in the gutter that the rack feet sit on to spread the load. The Dicor sealant never really hardens.

Figured today should be the day to use a newly acquired "Made in USA" paint pen on my dash knobs. Link —> Nissen

Put some Monstaliner on the bottom of my tub.

The last piece came in today. Thanks Roger!

Made a set of half doors for a friend.

 

[tls3601]

@NicksFJ40 those doors look great!

 

[Vossie]

Got my new seats in. Even have the electric motors on the driver side working.

Also re worked my roll bar on the load tray. Looks a lot better now and goes a long way to fixing the tray. Now just the number and side steps to do

What stone guards are those? They look great!

 

[Racer65]

Installed all new BVSVs. A parade of colors!

 

[Michael B]

I bought them on eBay. Then I bead blasted them and had them powder coated.

How did you apply your monstaliner? The texture looks different from others

 

[thebigredrocker]

Polished some elephant horn covers tonight. Still need to research how to jazz up the badge. I like the sound the elephant horns put out. Pleased with this upgrade @offkilter

Who me?

I "dabbed" it on with a paint brush. The second coat gave it the texture.

Finally put some old patinated gas cans on my rig. One of them has USMC stamped on the bottom. My father was in the Marine Corp during the Vietnam War, wonder if this was his?

 

[Strait Cruisin]

I love that 854 blue. Mine came with it and will remain....

The last piece came in today. Thanks Roger!

Installed these in the 40. NIce to have tunes again. No head unit is nice.

Amazon.com: Kenwood Compact Automotive/Marine Amplifier - 180 W RMS - 400 W PMPO - 4 Channel - Class D KAC-M1824BT: Cell Phones & Accessories

And a set of these.

Amazon.com: Polk Audio Atrium 5 Speakers (Pair, Black): Home Audio & Theater

How do you like the Kenwood?
I just hooked up a similar setup and the Pyle of Shet doesn't work.

I picked up my "new" FJ45 fuel cell from the machine shop today.

I always believed that was a Marine can also. Found out latter that USMC actually stands for US Metal Container. Bummer.

 

[Stumpalama]

Agreed on the save. Not my choice, but it's good therapy at least. @Stumpalama has some good pics on repairing the nose. Maybe he can add a link here.

Here you go: Watch Me Restore a Rusty Hood

It helps to have another hood that is in decent shape to use to form the patch pieces. I still have some work to do, but the hard part is documented in my thread.

Good luck!
