Smart flix

I've been looking at the great selection of instructional dvds at Smart Flix. They have a bunch of how to custom painting dvds, but are not limited to just auto stuff. I've rented fiberglass, and welding stuff. Also they were prompt and the quality has been good. Here's a link for the paint stuff, check it out...Painting.

Dash board

Mike got the dash and gauges all wired up nice and neat. He used a super good looking bezel that is carbon fiber and white faced gauges to set it off. Now all we need to do is find the time to re wire the whole car with the 21 circuit Ez-wire harness ,it will replace the 30 year old harness so Mike can drive another 30 years with out problems . Yeah right... it's a Chevy hopefully it'll make it a year or two .This will all look great with the freshly painted dash and the new dash pad.Just throw in some fancy interior work and we got a hot rod!

F-100 Nationals in Knoxville

Well we made a whirl wind tour of the all FORD F-100 Nats. on Saturday May 16th . Tommy Donald and I spent Friday night with the Krueger family and we all left at 6 am to drive 3 plus hours to Chillowee park in Knoxville.The weather was terrible ,raining hard and windy but we pressed on wondering if we were doing the right thing.The weather broke up as we arrived at the show , although it was some what cloudy and humid most of the day. The show was nice although we all felt the number of trucks was way down ,as well as the vendors in participation.I was excited to talk to the "Fat Man "himself , of FAT MAN chassis company.HE was very accessible and more than willing to help and answer any questions I really hope to do business with him soon .The 66Mustang convertible is really needing a updated front end....bring money $$$!I feel like the saddened economy was the cause for less participants , but I'm not taking part in the recession feeling that if i ignore it maybe it will go away!Albert and his son bought parts for some of their new projects and we all dreamed a bit , man there were some sweet rides there !
