Re: Sign-up - 1999 Trans Am Extreme Makeover!
Hey guys, just wanted to thank you all again for your help with my second project of the year! I just purchased this car, it is a 1999 30th anniversary Trans Am one of 292 built with the Hurst shifted six speed and traction control.
I was not really in the market to buy another car but this car is so rare I could not pass it up without making an offer. The car was sitting in the weeds in a backyard in Orlando since 2009!
The interior is also trashed so just purchased a complete reproduction interior kit for the car as well. If this car turns out anything like my K/5 Blazer did I am going to be one happy camper, if anybody can bring this car back to life I know its the guys at Autogeek!
Hey Mike, you are the best friend a car guy could have and to show you my appreciation I have a gift for you in my garage.... a brand new NOS Chevy C-K series dash in the box, I know you can use it for your truck project, stop by the house anytime to pick it up.
Thanks Jay

I am all for it; if that means I get to come and participate....
I'm thinking a one way trip from Ohio to Florida. Maybe Max will let me stay on as staff....

swirls... 95% of the vehicles at SEMA this year looked like this. Swirl City, but without the water spots.

We will patiently await the cloned version of Mike Phillips so the world will be rid of poorly and incorrectly polished cars.Sort an Army of polishing ants.

I have you on the sign-up list, the first thing we need to do is remove the graphics, I'll have a hair blow dryer and a heat gun here and ready to use.

I took some pictures of swirls out cars in the SEMA threads and actually have a video showing some horrendous swirls in a Camaro on display in the sun outside.
I didn't get a chance to walk much of the show and take pictures but of the cars I did see I would have to say the "paint" that is the finish quality of the paint is improving every year at not only SEMA but at the big auctions and even car shows and I personally attribute this to the rate of quality how-to information being disseminated on discussion forums like this one.

If I could... I would... at least for the special interest vehicles...
