Before we headed off to the Northeast Gathering a few weeks back, I wanted to purdy up my OG targa top. Tried a couple of things and finally WD40. The results were MUCH better than I expected, and have held up pretty well. Maybe you all knew this already, but I was pretty excited to have figured it out.

To do the job properly though, what expensive and thoroughly irrelevant tools should I insist are necessary? Two post lift? Plasma cutter? Alignment machine?
Seriously, I love quick and cheap solutions. I'm the man of the house and don't need a reason -- I'll buy those tools if I want to (and of course hide them and the credit card statement from my wife). Nice work, Tom (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Nice work, Tom (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) That doesn't work with my wife. She is a car person too. So trying to " hide them and the credit card statement from my wife" will result in my sleeping on the couch for a LONG time. But it does have upsides. She understands why I wanted the flat fan setup, and she enabled me getting it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
