  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

    Pecking away…started the instrument cluster assembly. Of course had to paint the little black frames around the woodgrain to make the aftermarket piece correct. Waiting for the correct wadja woodgrain from Todd to finish the job and install into the car.

    3M yellow for the most part. Some trimming might be required to get into those corners. There's a reason Instrument Specialties gets $100000000000 to restore these clusters.

    Hung some front sheet metal last week. It was nice to get those parts out of the basement.
