Where in Dallas can you find a thumb for $125. That's pretty cool, can you buy other body parts there.

There is an underground market for just about anything you could dream up.... Especially in a big city like Dallas.

Cool, I might pick up a wider foot so I can heel/toe in the Miata without turning my foot sideways.

I think Bean is finished....here it is!!!!

**Treibenschnell** · 03-28-2006, 10:53 AM

Sorry fellas...

TtT... that's close!

Here ya go... thanks to Thumbs, I mean Titus, for the help in "removing" the windshield (that guy has a heavy hand!) It was supposed to be out in one piece.

I hope to have it out to the body and paint shop soon...

**POS Racing** · 03-28-2006, 10:54 AM

So what's the plan??

Replacing the hood and fender... and painting the vehicle either the same Mariner blue or Sunkist orange (Gwen seems to like that idea better...)

But it will still be an ugly little car... only with a better paint job. And while the engine is out I'm replacing it's cracked header, leaky rear seal, and a bunch of other little nagging issues.

**POS Racing** · 03-28-2006, 10:59 AM

Sweet!

I'm with Gwen on the color! :afro:

**Tim the Teacher** · 03-28-2006, 10:59 AM

Hey........ I got the three wheels and no windshield correct!

**Treibenschnell** · 03-28-2006, 11:05 AM

By the way, don't let this guy anywhere near your windshield...

And why he's using a 1/2" breaker bar to remove my bumper I'll never know! \

Between ccage, Sean, and Titus' help, the car should be ready for paint soon...

**POS Racing** · 03-28-2006, 11:08 AM

I Love Orange! This was my old Vette.

**channelmaniac** · 03-28-2006, 11:08 AM

OK... maybe I missed it somewhere... but why are you taking it all apart & having it painted?

Why not? It's been part of my plan with this car since it's beginning to have it painted again. I've finished the VW project and the Honda is again running strong. I've got some local help to dismantle and reassemble the car and I've got the space and a little bit of a budget for it.
