what are you doing in boring oregon?

 

hah...its boring allright. im out here visiting family...been here a month already...got another month to go...im also trying to sell my horse while showing on the AA circuit...im ready to come home...i miss working on my cars...i could've had my 84 done by fall had i been home...but no, im here for 2 months, not working AT ALL...so money for restorations...grrr...but, i just got $2,000 from my grandmothers estate...kinda nice when your old folks croak...well, i didnt really know her, so it didnt bother me much...so um, can my 'rents die soon, so i can get my $$ from them? haha, im so mean...i dont really mean that.

yea, im also trying to get a wrangler when i come home....call me crazy for being 17, and wanting and THIRD car...

i need something to work on out here...i got an '89 dodge colt hatch back that needs a computer installed (i dont care bout that peice of crap, so no way in hell am i doing that...) and a '85 honda accord that could use a MAJOR tune up...again, i dont care bout that...and theres a few other projects that could be done...woop-di-friggin-do...

so i need to come home and work my butt off and get my 84 done so i can drive it....legally...finally...

 

blue interior is common

lots of birds had it

my 82 ta is dark blue interior,

i had an 88 s/e was light blue inside and out

see it all the time, but not older birds anymore

rare sight any color now

i wish i could find a few blue 82 83 84 bird parts for mine

spray paint, hum

crazy

poor car and parts


each to their own i guess,., makes mine one more rarer



good luck

 

I have a blue interior in my 82 Berlinetta. You can see some of it in this pic, but my seats are blue as well.

 

Yeah purple Camaros are cool!!!!

 

yeah, well im 18 and i have 3 cars, hahaha. the 85 IROC, 88 GTA, and my first car, my 1968 cutlass S with 62K on the clock. and yeah oregon sucks. i live in eugene, and it gets boring, plus its been in the 100's lately, and i cant handle that.

 

i'll be there tomorrow picking up my brothers cats...

 

hahaha im sorry.

 

I have read alot on this tread about chippind fadding etc...... the Krylon Fusion is just that it fuses chimicaly to the plastic.As far as the dies go I'm not too sure.I used the Krylon to paint my headlight area black... after a couple of coats some color sanding and a little wax they looked great.84FirebirdChick don't let some of the guys/gals on here get you down..I agree that there is alot of "if you don't do it my way you are wrong / a ******* / white trash etc..."If the product is used corectly it works great.Some advice if you decide to try and color sand the fussion make sure you spray a couple of coats as the first and sometimes the second will turn out looking like crap.
Good luck,
Mike

Modds: sorry I didn't know that you couldn't type about the color of somones neck

 

I just painted all of my gray interior panels last week gloss black Krylon Fusion & they look GREAT! Also repainted the black pieces to make sure they match. I cleaned them in my bath tub with dish soap first. Then I wiped them down with mineral spirits to make sure they had no residue from cleaning. I sprayed even coats about 30-60 sec. apart. This stuff drys fast! I have tryed to scratch the paint off & it's not going anywhere. This is the best rattle can paint I have used for interior panals. If only the exterior was as easy to do.

 

What happened to the pics?

 

im in oregon until aug. 30th. so im not able to take pics until after then..sadly i dont have before pics... be patient lol. i miss my cars!! im stuck with an 89 dodge colt 4 speed with out a computer here...so i dont even bother with it...stupid peice of ****.

 

Baby hurry your *** up and get back here.. lol, PA is SO boring without you :'(

FWIW: I can take pics if you all REALLY desperately cannot wait until the 30th when she comes back. As she said, unfortunately we were not able to take before pics. I guess let me know and I'll see. I am driving her '00 at the moment, but was going to go out there today to get my Jeep back for a trip to the shore this weekend.

 

that is funny that i ran across this thread my brother was over the other day and as he was leaving he said what are you doing i said spray painting my door panel lol. he says your a retard lol. i say what ever. he left came back over saw the door panel they were now red and black rather than dark tan and light tan. well anyway he looks at it and say about the carpet being red he says that is not painted i was like yes it is then i told him (now who is the retard) lol

btw where is west chester pa im not to far from harrisburg

 

your bout an hour and 15 minutes from west chester...hop on the PA turnpike and go towards jersey...

i'll take pics tomorrow guys...my 84 grew a colony of mold on the interior...since it sat for 2 months in the damp garage. and my 2000's ttops are leaking. butttt...my mom suprised me today and bought me a shop vac...normally a normal chick wouldnt know wtf to do with a shop vac, but im breaking it in right away tomorrow!! lol.

 

wow it grew mold in two mounths eww


i took the the carpet out of the trunk area today and there was water in the bottom cant figure out how it got there i see no what lines running down to there.also i painted the back panels and there was that thing (LOL) in the back that slid back and forth to hide stuff in your trunk well it messed those panels up in the back and it looks like **** so im taking the carpet from the trunk and carpeting them and painting it.

 

yea, my hatch (well my entire car) has weather stripping issues...i had a swamp back there when i removed my rear carpet...baking soda just wasnt cutting it...

i took all the panels out before i painted them...i havnt reinstalled them yet...too lazy lol...and waiting on new carpet...and get all the mold out lol. its gross...first thing i did when i got home from the air port was run inside and grab my keys to go start her up (currently no exhaust from the cat back, so its kinda fun sometimes lol) and i sat down in the seat, reached for the ingition, saw green on my steering wheel, on the center console, even on my defraust button! and yelped and jumped out...stupid rain and humid weather...its a rain forest in my car! lol. its baddddd! i should just give up on the peice of junk...oh well.

 

Yah West Chester isn't horribly far from Harrisburgh.

Liz, baby.. *EDIT* lol.... :-D

I still have to sell the bike to fund the fix of the Dakota.... ugggggggh.

 

rick, my 84 isnt going anywhere...no ****ing where. its not the car as much as it is the memories and the history tied in with her. i can get another car in addition to her...but im not selling her. if you tell me to one more time, i will leave you. b/c if you cant understand how important that car is to me, and you have no respect for it, or respect for my dedication to fixing it, then i have no respect for you. i know thats a low blow...but thats just how important she is to me...shes never leaving me...she is my past, she is who i am. deal with it.

 

Sorry baby. I love you and your hot rides .. even if my Dakota (and maybe Jeepie) is faster ;-)

We're getting the 350 .. so yah. And btw, did you want me to tell the guy with the 700 that you want it too? Let me know for sure and I'll send him a reply e-mail. I remember you saying $200 was good, so I'll throw that offer and see what he says.

 

yes 350...need to call jim on that...trans sounds good too.... trans and engine for 300$ not bad...
