I've sent my contact at Auto Meter an email to see if I can send my gauges back to him to have the Pointer/Hub/Tail swapped out with their new white "Old Tyme" style available in their custom shop. They didn't have the custom shop option when I ordered mine

Tim I don't know if your mom is proud of you but I sure am , that is quite a feat. You really should think about a

A book.I still think the I Pad thing would gain you more green than the Berry ever ever will.

Here is how I would state it.

(Situations have change folks)

The Batmobile needs an operating system that was not only state of the art but globally recognized for making the impossible possible when fighting Evil Doers of the world like DH..........

I am sorry DH but I am not going to change my views on the I Pad VS the Blackberry your talking about A

product that has less than A 1% market share and still falling .... I know that they said they were going to turn A

A profit By 2016 I just don't see it happening.I am not going to let Tim keep his boat hooked to this anchor

with out A fight.

I know it has Black in the name but I really don't see this as a racist thing at all.

Long Live (ONE BAT APPLE) ........................

LOOK at this logo I found on the net .

I think Batman needs the security of BlackBerry... wouldn't want the Bat Computer syncing with iCloud and getting hacked

Now that the vents on the trunk lid are water tight, I've moved on to waterproofing the trunk opening.

Still some more fitting work to do, but so far it's turning out pretty darn good

Yesterday was spent reshaping the trunk lid so that it would fit better against the body shell.

I used the same process as the canopy to make relief cuts, pin the material in-place and then re-fiberglass.

Coming from somebody with no fiberglass experience, the way you explained it does make fixing this (and the canopy) seem pretty straightforward.. although all your posts really puts into perspective how much of a workload I have in front of me..

Yeah, sometimes things fit great, but most of the time they don't. Every body will be mounted differently and since fiberglass flexes and bends you'll always have a bit of work to do in order to get everything to fit nicely for "your" body.

I finished off the footwell fabrication so that it hides away all the mess of wires and junk behind the dashboard.

This really helps give the dashboard a finished look and more like an actual car
