Like I told you last night, I guess that means we will have to hurry up and close the garage about 5:00pm

I used Fast Tak 92 for my headliner but I won't have my spray gun available for this weekend, sorry. Not sure if it's available in a spray can.

I've heard good things about 3M Hi-Tack 76 Spray Adhesive. Should be able to find it at Loews and Home Depot or maybe an Auto parts store. Don't skimp and buy cheap stuff or you will be having to re-do your headliner once the summer heat hits.

Yes, you need the foam padding. If you purchase it from the fabric depot see if they have some can spray on glue while you are there. What time are you planning on showing up tomorrow? The garage opens at 10:00.

Anyone know anything about subs and amps? I got a sub and an amp from my brother. He got rid of his car and kept the sub/amp and his new car sucks so he gave it to me and I don't know anything about them except my Gen 2 box needs bass! See ya guys tomorrow!

P.S. You can do it without the foam, it's just a little easier to do it you have it. I didn't use foam on mine.

Thanks to everyone who came out yesterday. 12 people in attendance. We all pulled together and got a ton of mods done. 12+ hours of work! Great to see some new faces as well as some old one as well. I'll post some pictures tonight.

I didn't take that many photos as I was busy working. I know a few visitors were taking photos so if you have any post them up!

I'll have a few pictures tomorrow. A HUGE thanks to our host Robert and everyone who helped out. Had a lot of fun, wish I could have stayed longer. We'll have to do this again sometime.

Cheers

I'll get 'em up tonight just been busy and they're in a RAW format so I have to import them into Lightroom and then export them out as JPG. Not a terribly long process but just been swamped with work this week by the time I get home from work I dont even want to see my PC. But I'll make some time tonight for it though.

Cheers
Rob

Here are a few pictures I took, I didnt take as many as I thought. I should have been taking pics all along but with everyone helping everyone else I just didn't ...









Next time I'll take more. Except it wont be the one in Feb, I will be on vacation that week. And the best kind of vacation to, one without cell phone reception, laptops or Blackberry!

Cheers
Rob
