Re: Chuck's '83 TBird Reply #450 – May 20, 2023, 08:12:58 AM Yeah. Just one of those odd 80's redundancies. Just install the amp and such and there's no need for an ON/OFF switch. It's not like we're talking about 500W of extra power or anything...

Re: Chuck's '83 TBird Reply #452 – May 21, 2023, 10:46:18 PM Well, the paint is on the car.I'm going to wet sand it here in the next day or so to get rid of the over-spray and a couple runs. Then I'll give it a quick polish pass.The color is off, but the spot is covered and will be covered by vinyl, so I'm not stressing it. I want the car available to drive.The 1K stuff I bought for the cage bits matched better than this 2K product did. This car doesn't sit out in the sun/weather at all, so it's not faded paint contrast, just a bad mix. It seems like good solid stuff, if I was repainting a whole panel, fender, etc though. 5 Likes
