  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I dropped off the orange 72 last week and promptly loaded another project into the trailer. I have already started pulling trim, but I likely won’t get to heavy into it until this Fall. Stay tuned! Going back with the factory colors of Lime Green paint and green vinyl top. Trying to save as much of the interior as possible, so I will try not to gut it.

    Was that in Bowling Green? I looked at one during the week (in the show I think) that decoded as Lime Green, Green roof and I think Parchment interior.

    Better order your soft trim now. Lead times have been pushing 4 months from some suppliers.
