Went on a sweet cruise through Napa Valley before heading to a holiday party. Out there, even the guys in Ferraris and Lamborghinis can't help but stare. :)

Just replaced the "rubber" mat that covers the foam on the back shelf. Autozone had a 6' x 3.5' rubber mat (diamond pattern) that worked perfect for my mat cover. The extra mat will make great fender covers and other protection when working on the cars.
You need 19.5" by 32.5" to cut your mat from. Just put it in with both plywood covers installed and use an exacto to run down the edge of the plywood.
Dont think so... the last time I used it I applied it with a foam brush for the small areas and a 3" foam roller on larger flat surfaces. It settles down and dries pretty smooth. It will need to be mixed as its a two part epoxy coating. Some spray surfaces after it dries with a better matching gray spray paint...Quote:

http://www.por15.com/POR-15-Rust-Pre...nt/products/1/ Comes in small cans because once you open one the moisture in the air will begin to harden it. This stuff is freakin' awesome. Makes a rock hard shell that just gets harder with moisture. If you do end up with a partial can left over, clean all paint off the lid rim and the can rim and sandwich a couple of ply of Saran wrap between the two. Leave enough slack to depress the wrap down to the level of the liquid, thus minimizing the air in the can. Hammer lid on. I've successfully stored a can like this for months. If you don't wipe the rims, you'll never get them apart!
Just FYI on POR 15 ,I've used thousands of gallons of it in military applications.
It contains isocryinates (sp) bad stuff -USE A RESPIRATOR ! Don't get it on you have plenty of ventilation and depending on which product you use it may need a top coat to keep the UV rays from affecting it.
If you have a can you wish to store and the lid gets stuck on -use a teck screw in the side of the can and remove when you want more POR.
Its wonderful stuff when used properly .
Got 6864 back from my ex-British Leyland engineer friend who does my electrical work.I now have the warmest,toastiest heat!!Just have to put the door panels back on.Will fix my sticky door release at the same time.Will also re-paint my door panels.(Krylon smoke gray).At the same time he re-placed my driver side window motor and neccessary guides and alignment pieces,so,alas a closeable driver side window.Now it`s a winter driver on clear days.Upcoming trip to Helen Georgia to try it all out.

My Autozone alternator died Saturday. I replaced it with a free warranty part from Autozone on Sunday. I did this work while parked at Home Depot too.
Got in over my head on the weather stripping replacement. Now currently at a work stoppage on the top door seals behind the torsion bar..... Grrr. Cars in the paint shop now getting the facias repainted, decided to go with a standard charcoal type color that closely matches the original, also opted for the flattening agent to give it a more matte look.
