Well, it's kinda split 50/50. 1st, I'm not gay. 2nd, I'm not a girl. Thus t3h problem But I really don't care. Back when I was in school, I would have, but not now.

I just laugh at nearly everybody cause I'm rollin around in my $100.00 car while they are making mortgage size payments on their POS domestic garbage or at least making payments on stuff.

That thought pleasures me

The metal polish worked on the cluster and the head lights! That is amazing!

You have a dent in the same quater panel i do!
This gives me Soooo much hope on fixing mine!
You said you would use less holes if you had to do it again? Please explain a little more the right way to do it. As you can see i am in the same boat!

Great thread man!

Wow, our cars are twins!

The RIGHT way to do it? This is the right way to do it


It welds the rivets on, you pull out the dent, then cut the rivet off. Infinitely better than drilling. If you wanna do it clean, thats how it needs to be done.

hmm, Thats pricey for me. I am gonna have to go with the autoparts store brand, and drill the holes then. I can just fill them in later.

What did you use for the guide you made? what type of material is that?

Well, no updates. I fixed a leak in the roof seal.. I hate leaks. And forwhateve reason, my fender is hitting my door now, so when I open my drivers door, it's pushing the fender in. Annoying. I have NO clue why it started doing this either, it wasnt hit or anything.

OH well.

Since there's a lack of Jelly news, here's a video of my truck FINALLY pulling the front tire off the ground.. It's not much, but you can see it It's best is 9.9 @ 132.5, it was breaking up on this run because the bottle was running on empty.



Enj0y!
