Re: How to tell when you are not using your car en
Yeah well............Paul /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/savewave.gif
My "car shop" measures 8' wide by 18' long.
Everyone knows the fine painting skills acquired by
ole Tinster during the Crypt Car ordeal. So I've
gotten real good with Harris paint stripper and Eastwood
rust primer.
Red with gas fumes, you say huh??
I'm having some thoughts to giving Amos a new outfit to
wear.... just soz no one might mistake him for Crypty.
The boys at the custom paint shop claim they can duplicate
exactly a certain Mimosa yellow, even from an internet
photo. $110 a quart. How many quarts it take to paint
a TR6?
Amos the Mimosa Boricua TR6. I'd hafta git me some gansta
wheels in that case.

Re: How to tell when you are not using your car en
Well Tom,
Maybe or maybe not. Depends on how you define senior.
Amos will be powered by a TR250 engine block.
So far, that TR250 block is the only component
of Crypty that has not broken down or blown up.
So Amos will have a power plant Senior to the other Mimosa.
I'm an old dude, far Senior in years to the upstart
youngster who is raggin' on poor cryppled Crypty.
Hummmmm- I've got part of the engine bay stripped to metal
and primed with Eastwood. Now is it worth $110. to try a
test patch in Mimosa? ( je,je,je- while Wendy's in Colorado
visiting friends!!) /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/nonono.gif

Doc, you talk about me being cruel????
Sorry Dale, I just couldn't pass it up. Especially with your "up on jack stands" signature.
Actually, Amos would look rather handsome in Mimosa, but you'll have to order the Chestnut interior to make a matched set.....
You will notice that I referred to Amos, as I shall in all future communications regarding the fine red TR6 restoration in Puerto Rico. However, Pedro will still be DPO Pedro, because no amount of good will can ever change that.

Hi There Tinster;
In My Opinion, (I`m not a Body Guy), The "ONLY" way to get a Perfect or as Close as possible to the Orig. Paint is to have the Paint Scanned:
I cannot see any way someone can realistically tell You that they could match a Paint even from an "Internet Photo"! "NO WAY JOZE`"! How do you right that Phonetically?
Anyways; That`s My $.02:
See Ya Later;
Regards, Russ

Re: How to tell when you are not using your car en
Power Block Cover box-
Eventually I'll design and build a proper Lucite
box with hinges and gasket.
For now, I need protection from the volcano ash and
the Sahara desert dust we get every summer during
hurricane season.
Tupperware?
Nah. What's my hobby? Fishing. That there's a waterproof,
floating, artificial lure box with gaskets and locking lid.
I removed the interior seperators and then I cut a portion
of the end and a bit of the bottom out for the wires to escape.
It is functional- maybe not beautiful but functional.
Kinda like it's owner, ha, ha.
No TR parts arrived so I'm spending the weekend working
on that pesky master bathroom sink leak for Wendy. Getting
near to a solution.
Tupperware in Puerto Rico? Ya never know. I saw a Fuller
Brush man truck the other day.

Re: How to tell when you are not using your car en
I'm certain Paul has a paint code to give Dale. But the thought of a complete colour change is kinda radical. Better part of a gallon for top coat, but the red ideally should be stripped and the body done with a good epoxy high solids primer before that... waay too expensive & time consuming...
Just my opinion.

Russ/Dr:
Go put on a pair of long pants and see if
one cuff seems a bit higher up yer shin than
normal.
Your leg's been pulled!
All hidden evidence I can find indicates red
was the factory installed color. Red it will stay.
And like YEAH! A paint change is gonna happen any time
soon. Wendy's gonna spring $8k or so to repaint
my non-running TR6. Not even in my dreams.
