I think the NARP thread is better than the Club thread. You can't use a direct link because it's a forwarded address.

This is actually a really easy task. Let me break it down for you.

Step 1. purchase flares

Step 2. load car on trailer with flares

Step 3. drive to Richmond, Va

Step 4. unload car and flares at Scotty's

Step 5. remove wallet from pocket

Step 6. Pay Scotty a really fair amount of cash

Step 7. go home and drink beer beer3.gif

Step 8. Take empty trailer and drive back to Richmond, Va

Step 9. Give Scotty 4 cases of beer and 1 bottle of tequila

Step 10. load car with beauitful professionally installed flares

Step 11. Return home and unload car

Step 12. Invite friends over to drink lots of beer and admire your awesome car.

See, a lot easier than you ever imagined. beerchug.gif

I never gave him the alcohol. Maybe that's why he still has my car? confused24.gif

It's easier to prime the inside of the flare off the car. Everyone is excited about getting their flares on, take a moment and prep and prime the inside first. the welding edge needs to be clean or weld through primer used.

McMark is doing mine. I like that he has done several others. Even taken them off, done rust repair and put them back on. biggrin.gif
