Reinstalled the idler pulleys fort air conditioner. A bit complex as the parts I had didn't exactly match the parts or service manual. Nevertheless, it's running smooth and straight and blowing cold.

Usually the original stripes have the DMC rubbed out or faded as opposed to the newer stripes that have the DMC cut out. So my guess is one is an add on.Wow, two wide-stripe cars! Both original or did you guys add those? Looking good!

Designed a new door lock module. It didn't involve physical contact with the car, but it still counts, right? :P

Blackie's car (the back one) has original stripes and the Logos are still in excellent condition. mine has the Special-T kit. It looks fine for me and helps to break up the stainless a little bit.Wow, two wide-stripe cars! Both original or did you guys add those? Looking good!

They both look great. I go back and forth on whether I like those stripes when I see them in person, but I'm always in love with them in pictures

I agree. Its a tough call. I really like them, but I also really like it without. Maybe when I get bored and want to change the car up a bit, I'll go for the stripe kit.They both look great.
