    Got bored with "Larry's" Red 2001 so ....

    it has led a far too boring life up to now. Made a few sweet modifications to her .... How do you guys like the wing? Raised her back to stock. Put a bra on her. A few stickers. The chrome wheel accents really set her off! I am pretty sure I have the nicest L on SVTP now.

    Another Front Plate Thread; New Idea

    Hello. The thought of giving cops an excuse to pull me over at any time just was too much. I didn't want to drill my bumper and I did not want to mount the plate on an angle bracket. So, the last place that would satisfy the cops would be to mount it to the lower grill in front of the heat...

    Polishing small metal parts with Dremel tool

    I have a stock polished TB that looks great, and nasty/stock bolts to mount it with :cuss: - not really, just in comparison. I have a Dremel tool, but there are about a trillion 'polishing' bits for it - which one(s) should I buy just for small-job polishing? Yes, I tried a search. :(

    Plasti Dip

    I used some Plasti Dip tonight. It is that stuff you use to coat tools with an insulating rubber surface. This stuff is pretty amazing for $10 a can. I was using it to insulate a metal piece on the truck and got to thinking about other uses. This stuff could really cure a lot of squeaks...

    Earlier yesterday I was reading a thread about how cops make your life a living hell when you are caught street racing. Take your vehicle. Go to jail, etc. Well, a ricer was carrying on like no other last night trying to get me to race. An Eclipse w/ a giant easy-carry handle on the back...

    Question about the Parts Thread ...

    Just a suggestion; Larry or Sid nuke this if this is stupid or I am using the search feature wrong. Is there a reason why "the Market" thread is all lumped together? Is it possible like like NLOC where parts 'for sale' sections are split between Mustangs, Lightnings and the like (into...

    Loud Horn!!!

    I bought a couple of these horns to replace the anemic horns in our company chevy vans; after hearing one, I want to put one in the L. They are very loud and are easy to install - no air compressor, no long trumpet-type horns. The horn in the L is ok, I just want someone louder for when...

    Looking at replacing the Ls battery, is the Optima 34/78 (yellow) the model I need? There are also a lot of billet braces/hold-downs on Ebay for the 34/78 - will they all fit in the L for a secure mount or is there one in particular that will work the best in our trucks. Price is not an...
