Big weekend
Cleaned it up and did some projects, check it out















Long overdue caliper painting





The pictures look really bad i'll take some better ones this week, the glare on the last one makes it look way worse than it does in person

Painted the console part of the T, doing the rest this weekend, gimme some feedback guys how's it look?

Looks good. I like everything you have done. Those wheels look really nice. What paint did you use on the console?

Just Krylon primer, 2 coats after some light sanding with 360 grit, sanded the primer smooth with 800, black duplicolor 3 coats or so, and 4 coats of clear. I'm going to use some polishing compound this weekend to really bring out the shine but I had to get everything back together for a show Saturday.

How did you get the BBK TB to work? I had it working for about 2 months, then my car went into fail safe. I couldn't figure it out, nor could Tillman Speed. Show me your mystical ways!!!

Lol I wish I could, if I redline shift through 1st and 2nd it will trip codes and I have to clear them, waiting on my shop to put my stocker back on b/c i'm afraid it will mess up my mapping. Sigh, I wish I could make this work. Worst part is i've talked to one of the owners from BBK and last I had talked they denied knowing of any widespread problems
