BirdWatcher

Wow! It's turning out great! Yeah..a kidney belt may be required to ride in this but so what? This truck has character, personality...deserves a name.

Awesome work! Can't wait to see more!

Cool! The bumper guard looks awesome!

I wanna watch Maximum Overdrive now, great soundtrack!

I remember my gramps used to make up some stuff with vinegar and baking soda, hot water and something else, i forget.(probably the most important ingredient) The cats were christening his rims in the backyard. Worked pretty good on aluminum, i used it on my bike while he was cleaning stuff too. As far as the clear coat stripping goes, the only product I've ever heard of working is EZ off oven cleaner. Tire must be removed from rim before applying EZ off. I doubt S.O.S. pads would touch it.....

Awesome Diesel! The ride height looks great!

I think i need a tetanus shot...

So cool! I wish this was my build.

Love the color. How about an outside pic when weather permits?

Awesome! Are the hood pins aftermarket, or kit supplied?

What's the color? The combo goes great together.

Best ever!

That pic of him sitting in front of his build is awesome! Don't even know you guys,yet I still feel proud of Michael. Great Job Michael!

Great paint! Looks awesome in those last two shots.

A good carnuba just may remove any haze left by polish. I like to use micro fiber towels...cut up in to small pieces. I use one for Novus No.1 and put it directly in front of my bottle, one for Novus No. 2, and so on so as not to contaminate my last polshing cloth. I try to get progressively lighter with my touch and let the compound do the work.

I love using the Foil tape from harbor freight when I'm sanding something and want to preserve a panel line or edge, but i find it difficult to get it to conform to complex shapes as the glue is very tacky. Cutting isn't a problem, as I'll usually sharpen a brand new blade before I BMF anyway.

Whoa! I was just reading MAD last night...Cool! I'll be watching.

I like the concept..Great detail on the bug.

Cool! I'd love to be killed on that show.

Thanks for showing us your build, can't believe I've never seen one of these before. I bet it was fun.

Wow! That orange paint really pops.

I like it, great build! The engine looks perfect.

The paint looks flawless.

More please!

Cool! I may have to build five of these for a club project. Looking forward to seeing more. Was the paint job a silver base coat and blue top coat?
