Oh wow... Like I dont know who you are...

What I am not sure of is, are you the same person as Jake from Statefarm? Ok you are not the same... Figured that one out.

But more confusion as there are 2 users which have posted from your same IP address... But your email matches one of them, and not the other... wow...

[Laecaon]

Someone pass the registration to a different user?

[BLUE]

I use that profile as a random one here or there.
It came from the days of " r o y - u r m i s c h e " last year with being dicked with hence the " Damage Control " user title.
I was beyond pissed with that particular individuals lies/complete bullshit at that time , and it gave some good lulz.
Didn't think it was harmful though

Sorry for the clutter Draker.
510 is coming along , and looking good.
Feel free to clean up my last couple comments.
Will happily edit out last few.

I see nothing wrong with positive comments from alter egos / secret identities / split personalities.

I registered it for the lulz. If we were trying to be sneaky we wouldn't have been so obvious.

The the lulz begin.

And by begin I mean continue!

Today was a long day.. but work was done.

[draker]

Today I installed the temporary front seats. Installed the front bumper and installed new plates.





Drove down the road a few blocks to get the windshield installed.



After the new windshield was installed it was time for the cars first wash since 1984. I was going to make it a good one.

I washed it then did a 5 step detail to make it shine. Only a datsun owner would detail a rusty car... lol

1. Washed
2. Clay bar
3. Cleaner
4. Polish
5. Wax

That certainly is a lot of buffing..

Today there was an annual car show called Function 4 Junction... something like that. Anyway, it's basically all domestic muscle cars.. I walked around while the window was getting put in. Tons of high dollar builds but these were the two that stood out to me.

[izzo]

have any more pics of the wash/clay etc? Love to see some before/after pics. Really wanting to polish this 720 and get some awesome paint back (and also, preserve the patina )

[draker]

This is the best I can do at the moment. I can take some better after pics tomorrow though.

Do they still do the open cruise through town? I did that about 10 years ago in my '36 Chevy. Pretty fun event.

Any other pics of the orange '35 behind the woody?
