Default Starting My Y2K Winter Upgrades !

Well my season isn't over yet but I was forced to start a few upgrades I want to do seeings how I am without a drive for the time being . . . . I'm only doing a few things now that won't have me down once the drive gets back from Konrad . My plans are to first: do a mural on the bottom side of the engine hatch , which I've started . second : I'm putting a 17" monitor on the passenger side dash and 8" monitors on the front seat backs . They will all have the ability to display forward facing camera , GPS , or video from the entertainment system . Third : gonna have the seats recovered . And something i'm undecided about is painting some graphics inside the cabin ..

Bottom side of the engine hatch had more dimples than a fat chicks a$s ! After 80 DA'ing the $hit out of it you can see how chopped up the glass is . I'm gonna introduce you to the best primer you could ever use in this situation . If you don't believe me just watch . I'm not gonna use any fillers ! Just three coats of Quick Fill Resin based primer and then I'm gonna block and start painting ! 1st pic untouched , you can see the ripples . 2nd sanded down , the shinny spots are the low areas that could not be sanded out . 3rd and 4th are after three coats of quick fill .

My winter project will be change the fluids back off the valves and give her a good cleaning. Maybe hit up Zul for some power modifacations. Dont think 1200hp is in my reach though. Although the under side of my hatch is pretty scarry also. Hmmm

Rick did such a beautiful job on the rest of my boat ! I don't know WTF happened under the hatch but when I was sanding it I found a Bacardi rums label stuck in the paint ...WEIRD !
