Desert COP Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 These are some of the pictures of how I got the car back minus the motor. * Some stages as I found time to work on the beast. The Blue and Yellow is the now!!! * Brakes, Seat Belts, Seat, Windshield and a few other small items and I'll go out and play on the asphalt!! * Cheers, Dennis (aka: Desert COP) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert COP Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 HiTech, Greg Sr and I put the motor back together after Bruce did all the machine work. I did all the stripping, repainting and body work myself with the exception of a little welding that Bobby helped me with. I even painted it!! It's been allot of work just working weekends when I'm off work. Can't wait to get it out there and run a few practice laps. See Ya There!!

Flyin34 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 I would hope he is kidding, whoever he is hiding behind his screen name. Otherwise he is just running his mouth. It is funny how brave some people are when nobody knows them. Or maybe he is a veteran who served our country as well. I doubt it the way he is hiding.

Desert COP Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Post deleted by Nick Holt, 1/18/12 Nick, HiTech, and Greg Jr. all know where I've been. I just ignored idiots, and hope someday they have to walk a mile in my shoes. I've paid my dues and earned my stripes! * Someone with no itegrity and no morals will always bad mouth from the shadows. We call-em cowards!!! * Thanks for the support guys. Maybe someday he can come out of the closet/or quit hiding behind a screen name.

NickHolt Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Unfortunately, it's sometimes hard for me to tell when a negative comment is just good-natured bantering between buddies or a cutting remark. I have removed the comment and hope we can all put this behind us. Dennis, yes, we know where you've been and I truly appreciate your service to our great country.

Thanks Steve, I still have a little of that red to hide, but it should be just a couple more hours of work. I'm in San Antonio right now having my eye surgery, so I should see everyone back on the 30th if all goes well. Cheers Brother!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert COP Posted February 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 OK, I've made a few changes to the color scheme, and I think maybe just one more after this. Take a look at the last three pictures I just added to this album. I've enclosed one of them as I was peeling the tape off of it. I painted it today while I still had fairly good weather. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.3...mp;l=19f8174c75 Cheers!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
