Foulplay

[Lenie]

Sorry to hear that Lenie!!! Getting old is for other people -- it should never happen to us!

Lenie,
If you can work through the pain, stretch your hamstrings. I've had the same thing happen to me before. If you have to, lay on your back and have someone lift each leg with your knee locked. God luck.

Bill

hope you get better soon man.

I played volleyball yesterday, today I feel like I was in a fight...

getting old sucks

Lenie Sorry to hear this. Did you try something that's got anti inflammatory like Advil. My doctor has me take 800 mg and it sometimes helps. Check with your doctor fist. I hope the pain eases up soon. I know not working on the car is going to drive you nuts but that stress will keep you back in knots even longer.
Feel better.

Sorry to hear that Lenie. Been there, done that.

But now I keep in shape.

:D:lol: You are all right, growing old isn't for the weak. Not really in medication but broke down last night and took a couple of Aleve/did ice and heat, still wanted to go out and work on the car carefully but the wife put her foot down and had her way. Today still hurting but the wife's at work so I'm out crawling around very gingerly...got till about 5:00 tonight to get things done before the wife get's home....

[qnitro]

LOL... This happened to me Yesterday.. Im Dying as well :) Im taking some muscle relaxers and heading to the Garage :) I might not do anything but stare at the car, but at least I wont be on the couch..

Been pushing the last couple of weeks in my garage doing the trunk, stereo and electrical to make it presentable/safe for a little road trip in the next couple of weeks. Needed to get my end of the work done by Tuesday so I could get it to the painters for some touch up paint work and cut/buff although a few paint items to redo down the road, now just trying to get presentable. Was out working this morning when first time in my life while getting out of the trunk pains shot thru my lower back and it locked up. Found myself in the fetal position on the garage floor w/nobody home for awhile before I was able to get back in the house and now pretty much can't move around. What the hel-? Couldn't have happened at a worse time....pissed!:mad: Common' man, could of waited 1 more day. Venting...

Battle! Ya it sucked but ended up working thru it, cost me about a day of immobility. Hope you get to moving around pain free soon.

[Lenie]

At the GNRS, car will be outside Sat. and Sun.

[makoshark]

I gotta stay off Lat-g for a while. Seems there a case of backitis going around and I don't wanna catch it:)

Hope you all get heeled up!

[Ron in SoCal]

At the GNRS, car will be outside Sat. and Sun.

Damn Lenie, I want to see the car today! :confused59:

[canrc]

I agree with Ron -- I wanna see!

Did you manage to find a chin spoiler Lenie??



Car is killer that's for sure!!

[Lenie]

Thanks Greg, yes I drove to classic industries monday morning and grabbed two just in case. The shoot lasted from 10 am until 8 pm, was pretty cool and met some great car people including the producer of Overhaulin'. Greg, thanks for everything Saturday night, I really enjoyed myself and thanks for tracking down a new spoiler.

[9deuce9rr]

Found these two floating around the internet, so I figured they're free game to post, since you just have camera-phone pictures for now :underchair:

A trip to Classic Industries makes you one step closer to experiencing the full SoCal hot rod scene. I bet you got to watch that one episode of Chop Cut Rebuild while you waited for the chin spoilers. :lol:

I've never been there but have always wanted to.. I'll have to think about it, it's not that far away..Thanks

[Richio1]

Yeah come on Lenie, you gotta bring it South for an event. HAN's or West Coast Nats. would be perfect.

Here's an idea, have Greg pick you up in his toy hauler with his new hot rod then come down and meet up with me, Dave can bring his race car, John should have Bloodline done, and the so cal guys can shoot up with Ron, maybe the MIA DR. Renner and the rest of the crew.

What a great opportunity to get all these recently / soon to be completed cars together. Jody can throw his Lat-g cart blanch around and get us a designated Lat -g parking area so we, along with other local members, can represent. :yes:

If we did Pleasanton we could even look into APEX in Livermore for a photoshoot :drool:

Just thinking out loud

[ChargerNorway]

Sitting up here in cold Norway, with 5 feet of snow outside. Browsing some buildthreads for inspiration, when I came across this one.

What an amazing build!!! Read trough in one sitting, so totally impressed with your attention to details.

Hope you will have a blast driving this year, time to enjoy the fruits of all that work.

Man Lenie that is a drop dead gorgeous car. You knocked it out of the ball park. If you do decide to beat on it I would put some clear bra at least behind the rear wheels. I regret not doing that with mine. :cheers:

Thanks, I think I am going to do that. Any idea how easy it is to do it yourself. Which film do I buy? Would it be better just to hire a professional?

I would use only the 3M clear bra. As far as installation, I would watch a few you tube videos and see if it is something that would be within your expertise.

[Wissing72]

The 3M works well. I have seen cars come in with it, but they are daily driven and not cared for like we do with these cars. I may put some on the lower parts of mine next year.
I also see people putting on painters tape when they go on drives :confused18: that seems to be more with the BMW guys lately.

I've used the 3M on our last four daily drivers and it's held up very well. I know Vegas69 used it on PayBack also. You had to be right up on it to see it. Once my car is painted it will have this applied.

[geberhard]

I am doing vinyl stripes on my brother in law's Mustang and honestly the material is not too hard to work with, but still takes time. The clear bra is not so easy to install, I would go with a place that does it regularly, as the clear material has a smaller shelf and UV life, and if not the best quality it will yellow out and peel fast even with limited sun exposure.

Good luck!

Thanks guys, leaving Thursday and not quite ready yet. Got one header off that I had to modify, sent it back to the coaters and hopefully getting it back tomorrow, hoods off, could never get it to fit quite right with the fesler billet hinges even though I could get it to lay down perfect w/the original hinges and today I couldn't take it anymore so I removed the billet hinges and decided to modify them a tad on the milling machine....well there goes any warranty but there wasn't anything I could do to make them fit right..we'll find out tomorrow if it worked out..these were things I was going to do this winter after enjoying it for the summer but you know the deal..it's SEMA time, been driving it this summer so the cars going to get buffed out Wednesday and then loaded onto the trailer ready to roll... pretty stoked. See ya all there!

Shoulda taken the header over to my buddy Brad at Performance Coatings -- I'd have made a call and made sure it was DONE!

Replace that Fesler stuff with some Ring Brothers. See ya in Lost Wages dude!

[Ron in SoCal]

^ Lenie I've got a set of air frames on the shelf if you want me to overnight them in the morning. No idea what the shock pressure is, but worth a try if you want. This is the big dance you know :D

Greg, I did take it to your buddy over at Performance Coatings and man he has went above and beyond to help me out. I couldn't have asked for more and yeah, this winter I'll probably trade them out for Ring Brothers hinges if I don't sell it first and move on.:thumbsup:

Greg/Ron don't know what your plans are but I'll be there Saturday thru Friday, if you guys are around give me a call I'll take you to lunch and we'll catch up..want to hear about that car and new home/shop!

Lenie I can't believe you couldn't get them to work. There is a ton of adjustment . Is your hood OEM or AfterCrap? I had a problem with mine only to figure out it was the AfterCrap hood causing the problem! So I had to adjust accordingly!:bang:

^^^:lol: :lol:
To funny, Mario it's the original hood, I just ran out of downward adjustment on the back bolt slots. I was told to work the forward and back bolts together until it settled in but that just didn't do the trick so I re machined the slots and shoulders, but I do like your approach and have taken that same route in the past.

[ONEBAD78TA]

Hey Lenie,if I see you around I will wave as I pass you by.LOL:animated_bye_bye_em Awsome car

I have ring brother hinges and I had to stand on my hood with Tim, like Mario did, and still had to take the hinges to the milling machine to get more adjustment. You got to realize that we are working to tighten all the gaps and get perfect panel alignment on the car. Every car is different and some need more adjustment.

[tjbruning]

Looking forward to seeing it at SEMA. Nice job Lenie!

[Frankenstine]

Hey Lenie, just seen the picks Al took your car is looking Sweeeeet, congrats, Hope someone will take more, will you be running it at OPTIMA??

Thanks Wayne...It was great to put a face to all the names, I fall short sometimes on conversation as I'm not the greatest at it but I thoroughly enjoyed seeing and speaking w/all of you..Thank you for stopping by and seeing me. I was enjoying SEMA w/my dad so I was unable to get out and converse much.

I was watching Overhaulin last night, looks like Foose borrowed alot of the exterior design cues you used Lenie.

[Lenie]

Great to finally meet you Lenie! Thanks for taking the time to chat and show me your car!

Raj, anytime. Cool to finally meet you also after talking w/you so many times. Can's wait to see your car. Let me know if there's ever a good car show up there sometime and I'll try to make my way up.

Hey Lennie nice job on the car! I had been following it the whole way and it was great to meet you in person and be able to check out the car in person as well! hope your trip went well and look forward to seeing it getting pounded on now!:thumbsup:

Thanks Eric, everything went awesome and very good to meet you also. Wanting to drive but waiting on spring time.

I was watching Overhaulin last night, looks like Foose borrowed alot of the exterior design cues you used Lenie.

Funny you should say that, Mr. Foose did a walk around of the car with me at SEMA and pointed out a few things that my car had in common w/a build he'd just finished. I hadn't seen the car until the other night also. Their build turned out very nice, wouldn't it be awesome to be able to finish our own cars in seven days!!! :D

Who got married Greg to bring you to Washington? Two months of sunshine and heat but on goodguys weekend grey and sprinkles...needed it but not on gg weekend. In my humble opinion, not one of the better gg's here so you picked a good one to miss although it never gets old seeing everyone from Lateral there...good group!

[96z28ss]

It was great chatting with you and seeing the car again. Next year I'll hopefully bring my car.

When should I bring my car up so you can do my interior?

Good to see you to, maybe next year when you and Tim are finished we can set up some kind of pre show barbeque at the house w/the cars.
