jct

you need lots and lots of shelves

Metro273

Wow! That garage needs some dusting!...

rallying_the_scion

...ya..i gots a small garage, id be roomier if it wasnt for for my trailor being in there, housing rules wont let it sit in the driveway without a ticket. i clean it during the summer, so i can open the door for long periods of time....

and if you for saying im doing horrible things to the box...i guess u cant read, cause it will be cleaned up....by this summer for shows.....and its hard to keep a car clean when its been -30 degrees out side....trust me, you dont dare get water on the door seals, ask my wife when her door was frozen shut..nuff said...

Nastos

no my reading skills are up to par just think its wierd u would even bother spraying it while its that dirty... dont post pics if u dont want feedback end of story.. in the meantime i guess ill give u the benifit of the doubt lol

burstaneurysm

^ Yea, but feedback on a part in progress should be different. It's not like he said "here's my finished part, what do you think?"

rallying_the_scion

i never complained about feed back....so ya...might want to take up on reading skills there buddy, it fine to sit a point out how bad things are..ok, ill admit, the paint aint perfect..but its a temp thing....itll be fixed over time.

your opinion is fine with me...but dont act like a ____ing genious on modding,painting and fiberglassing, thats all i got for you.

warning tags are a nice touch, be sure they are filled out correctly...haha

rallying_the_scion

ill apologise on my actions, they were wrong twords nastos..sorry man.

i hate warning tags, lol, specially when you got to fill out 8 for a 5 minute job, lol.....but like you said, neat touch on the xB while working on it, lol.

ketchup_xb

dont mind the haters mang. i just laugh at em . definitely an awesome one-off grill.

Nastos

yeah you did do a nice job on the glassing.. just distracted from niceness with random spray everywhere... im not denying this will be a sexy box nor am i a hater

rallying_the_scion

oh ya, the over spray is a bit annoying, but the drivers side corner was my test to see if i was gonna like my paint design. i may sand it back down and repaint to flat black till i can get the paint for red and gray

. i sanded th car down and primed it then painted it flat black, its just dirty in picks, the roads here in ak are horribly dirt, they use dirt and sand, no salt at all cause of moose licking the roads

when I PCS to the lower 48 this summer, i got some friends that are going to help me paint my xB the right way and make it hella better, lol, just being in AK where you get your car sand blasted every summer, no use in getting it properly painted yet...waste of money.

Nastos

lol i for gotabout dirt roads i havent seen one in ages

Big_Bird

Looking good so far.

rallying_the_scion

lol...ya wes got super dirty roads...id never paint a dirty car, got to be washed sanded..al the proper crap.

TypeX

Umm the guy lives in the middle of nowhere alaska.
Alot of projects look horrible until they are completed but don't say it looks horrible when its not finished.


To the OP, props to the good custom work & always positive vibe in responses on here and the other site.

rallying_the_scion

thanks man..means alot!!!

i try to be professional...but as a guy at work says, i have ambers lite under me all the time, takes a little wind and BOOM, sadly some one cause a little wind and i went..and i appologise for that...but id like to think were all beans and gravy now....or "cool" as some say, lol.

i havent worked on it in a few weeks, teeth pulling a funds low. come to find out...i might be getting a nice back pay from the usaf.....around $3000....but i wont hold my breath..well see.
