Lounge / New T-Bird shirt
So like the title says I had picked up a few shirts at burlington coat Factory for like $2 they are actually the thickest t-shirts I've ever seen. I went to the local embroidery shop and $30 later I had 2 of these. Car show shirts. Lol

Lounge / Calling all body men/painters....
So I was asked by a family friend to paint his 71' volvo gun metal blue(like Dallas Cowboys away pant colors) the car is pretty straight needs a new rear panel replaced, new lower quarters, and a little core support work. The body needs to be stripped, primed, painted.... What I'm wondering is what # should I throw at him, without giving him a heart attack.  He got a quote of 10,000 and he was blown away so I need to be quite a bit lower with still making decent money. It's been a long time since I've been in the business (10yrs lol) So what do u guys think? Also the car is stripped no windows, engine, interior and all trim

User Rides / Bought the wife a new to us car it's a 2010 honda accord with 31,000 miles
We have been putting off getting rid of our cavalier but with 3 kids it had to be done. It's my first non American car hope it's not a total disappointment, so far very cheap feeling rock hard seats, components ok I guess, and potato chip doors(use to heavy Chevy doors). Totally went out of my comfort zone on this one but hey its a honda what could go wrong? Lol

Suspension/Steering / New tires..... again. Lol 295/50/15
So got about 300miles out of those shiznitty bfg  drag radials, no burnouts either. So bought the maxxis marauder tires, which are awesome. I've had them on the car since November(1000 miles) and they still look new, they are hard as  but at the cost of tires these do the job of keeping my wife off my back. Lol do have rubbing issues but they look cool

I didnt do so good on the racing because I was using street tires, but I still had fun, first run left very soft ran 12.3, second run left harder spun a lot 12.5,third spun again 12.6. next year I'm definitely getting drag radials.lol I thought mycar would be faster with all the stickers they gave me to put on
