Cam covers look great Leo!

They are 100000% better than the grunge metal look. I bet you were nervous getting those freshly painted covers into position.

That note from Bob is too funny! I see that he wrote the letters 'CMM'. Funny, that's my job at work.

She's lookin' good Leo!

I see you're whipping her into show shape. You missed some spots on your floor mat. Better clean that up before taking on the Taco (we're in the same Class ya know)!

Coordinate Measuring Machine. Just a fancy name for a computer aided precision measuring machine.

Guess Bob's a CMM operator!

as of right now, yes. If anything changes I'd know by Thursday at the latest, but I don't see that happening. I bought stripes instead of a helmet, so I'll have to rent one. The one I want is close to 400 bucks.

Awesome! Can't wait to see the stripes on your car. How much is it going to run altogether to get them put on?

Gloss White, 12 " I just don't think I'll get 'em done by the show

I love the aggressive look the car has now and I think the stripes will put it over the top.

It's 160 bucks all told from BSM. I plan on doing them myself or with help if I can.

Hopefully the correct order will be Chicks, Mustangs, Sunny Day, Friends and then maybe something to eat.

Being that it'll be my first show I have no idea what to expect.

John you know those Calli (SoCal) losers are used to sun, no humidity, no rain, good weather year round and all the chicks one would ever hope for. They aren't weather hardened like we are here. This time of year its 95/95, that’s 95 temp and 95 humidity, good for the skin weather as we say. No wrinkles forming over here.
