ECG1000 Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) Well, I was supposed to be fitting my Buddy Club Type A gear knob. Had a struggle getting the OEM knob off and ended up mangling it! The Buddy Club knob was 12x1.25 instead of 10x1.25....! I was knob-less.... Had to get the old lathe into life and turn down some ratty wooden pole: Could do with some varnish but I actually quite like the feel of it. Got some good leverage, making changes a little easier... Correct size Buddy Club should arrive tomorrow... Having trouble finding the correct threaded Buddy Club knob so I decided to make a slightly more permanent knob out of nylon. Made it bigger than the wooden one and a bit shorter. Really like it actually. Got more weight to it and still gives good leverage....could be a keeper. Hard to see from the photo but there are 3 shallow grooves at the top and 2 larger ones at the bottom. Also dipped my fangs last night: Edited April 16, 2014 by ECG1000 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ran a blade around the edges of the painted area as soon as I finished spraying, hoping that dip wouldn't lift when I pulled the masking tape off. Rear valance at the weekend and maybe badges...

Lyndzzz Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 So the paint on my roof is in pretty bad shape with lots of scratches, blemishes and lacquer peeling. I decided wrapping it would be the way to go. Wrapped it yesterday after claying the roof to get it a smooth as possible but the paint/surface is in such poor shape the wrap looked $@?! showing all the imperfections, so off it came . I'll be taking her to my painter friend and getting it done properly!! In order to have something to show for this weekend I painted the plenum and finished off the engine bay tidy up 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 ^^ Very nice Lyndzzz. What paint did you use on the plenum then in the end? Looks nice and glossy from where I'm sitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyndzzz Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 (edited) Thank you I used a satin black rustoleum that I had lying about, not sure if it'll stand up to the heat yet, but I can always redo it if need be!
