Default Re: Resurrecting the Rambler

Thanks Charlie!

After the usual race reports from the "retired racer's breakfast club" that meets on Monday mornings at the local pub, and the normal running around paying bills sessions that always follow, the rest of today was spent prepping the right side of the car for the main striping. Managed to get two of the three stripes laid down and cleared before running out of tape late in the day. Hope to finish up that side next weekend and then move on to the flares, hood, and rest of the car and turning it all into an even shade of red. Painting has got to get done before it turns into humid 90 degree days.

Was going through a shoebox that I started putting old track and race decals and stickers into clear back in the early 80's, and happened upon a couple that I remembered being included inside the box with a new Hurst Ram-Rod shifter I bought for my '68 Camaro back then. These little red and white stickers will have to become a fixture someplace on this AMX.
They read:
"For your safety, tighten all nuts and bolts securely. Recheck periodically."
Good advice.

Another one I found interesting was a long bright orange one that we used to get from our NAPA warehouse when they would return our old stock we would try to send back to them every so often. Just reads: "Obsolete."
That one might need to go on my helmet.
