Well we have been working on making some changes to the hoopty before we are back at it soon. Nothing huge just a sadly needed interior update. Had the tin repowdercoated, redoing the windows and side frames, repositioning the inside door handles, repainting the doors, floors and cage along with adding a racepack and doing some rewiring.

Anyway we got one hurdled cleared today with some fresh paint on the dash itself. Up until this point it was unpainted fiberglass. So now it has some color. So here ya go let me know what ya think. Still a bit more til it is 100% finished.

I had to homage to my Boise trip from 2013. While it sucked and I do not suggest anyone try it we managed to survive it and continue on. So there it is

As for playing pool. Hey it's fiberglass and is eaily moved. Plenty of room for it elsewhere juts figured off the floor was better than on it around here with all the animals.

Nah, I saw the picture you posted in your Year End thread and would say there's no point in a face lift, but maybe ya' could drop a few pounds...

I really have no room to talk, since I figured out that I've gained at least 16# per kid (got 3 now) since I got married.

Very nice looking work AL, I am sure it's going to look great in the car.
