time for some change

95opal · Jan 24, 2011

The winter has me all couped up in my garage so I decided to make some changes to the bay.
Nothing written in stone yet, going to finish a few things that I never got to before and change a few other things lols.
I will post an update when I put everything back together.

For now I will just drop a teaser :tongue3:

haha Duff thats good that your finally going to be driving , you have quite a few passes to make before you reach the amount of miles ive put on mine in the last 4 years lol.
As far as the sanding go's not quit sure im going to go that far with the intake. I basically just wanted the holley and crap off of it, although you never know.
Duff In regards to your wheels dont bother as fast as your going to be rippin no one will ever see them ,your better off cleaning up your taillights hahaha

Not sure at this point I was going to try and get away from polished parts as i already have a ton of them and really didnt want another piece that needs to be cleaned and polished all the tim. Then again there is something about a smoothed and polished holley thats screams sexy lol. I guess anly time will tll. Right now Im removing some more clutter from the bay and redoing a few other things. as things start to go back together i will decide what Im doing with the intake.

bsn95w · Jan 25, 2011

polish it... you know you want to.

cant wait till i get an intake for mine. pollished like nobodys business.

I ment ill be driving by you on saturday ( driving to NJ haha) not the car!!!

and good point bout the tails hahaha! esp coming from a 5.0 guy

Man I don't see how anyone can have polished, under-hood parts on a car that is driven often/daily driven. It would be damn near impossible to keep them clean. I don't know about you guys but washing my car doesn't insist of cleaning the engine bay every time. lol. Maybe once a month!

Mike My car isnt my daily and most of the time i drive it its going to a show, an event or just a weekend cruise, otherwise she sits in the garage. If it were my daily I wouldnt have even bothered cleaning the bay as much as I have.

Gotcha duff and anytime you need those tails cleaned let me know hahaha Have a safe trip and watch out for all the A-holes in jersey...some of the worst drivers around not counting NY, boston and anywere in FLA lols.

duh09 it may be a bit naked now but I plan on strippping her to the bare essentials lol

Orange Stang · Jan 26, 2011

there are the people that clean their bay after every drive and I am one of them. Dust looks stupid. I love clean engines, and I do my best to keep my two clean..

cant wait to see the finsihed product!

95opal · Jan 29, 2011

Ok Im a few hours into cleaning up the holley and here is how shes lookin.. Sorry for the poor quality didnt have my camera with me.
I figure another 15 hours into it and shell be done lols

if you want a legit mirror finish, it takes alot to sand out all the imperfections, then youve got to buff forever.

btw opal... how did i know this was going to be polished?? lol.
