I called up yesterday and got.. it'll be done monday or tuesday.. but this time I put my foot down that it has to be monday cuz I am having a major surgery on tuesday getting my jaw broke in multiple places and having to stay overnight.. and then who knows wut my condition will be days after that I only trust myself to drive it home but I don't trust myself when my jaw is killing me :( Not as long as some other ppl but for 8 1/2 months I've been attempting to get the car painted.. changed my mind on color 3 times.. got a new set of gfx, new wheels, tires, stall, shift kit, tranny cooler (all due to the first ppl messing up the trans :mad:), badges, taillights and all of it is either with the car or sitting at home waiting to be installed. A couple of my friends ask me about the car all the time as well and it gets tiring going back to them and saying it wasn't done when I thought it would be or I didn't get the gfx yet like I thought I would. I've gone to just not even saying hardly anything about it to ppl I don't talk to all the time.. such as my friend last nite who asked about it and I vaguely answered.. it's getting painted.. same answer for ppl across the street haha and when they ask wasn't it getting painted months ago I just say yea.

I know what the paint thing is like Sheila, I've been trying to get mine painted for over a year now, with 2 painters backing out. And then this paint and everything else was supposed to be done by May 1st... and its not done yet, with a car show this Sat. It won't get the final wet sanding and buffing till Sun/Mon.. and Thursday is when I leave for Superfest. Needless to say, I'm not pleased with the whole thing. It sucks to tell everyone that its "going to be done next week"..every week for months straight. At this point when people ask, it just irritates me and I give the briefest answer. I haven't driven my Camaro in over a year. Then Ryan breaks the third brake light today, runs out of VHT NiteShade and I have to hope it gets here before Sat. when I ordered it tonight.

And Arch, I'm not trying to start anything with you. This is a forum where people share their opinions about things. That's all. As I've said before I like your car, and if you ever did the flames it would be one of my favorites on here, even though it has an SS hood, which I've always made clear is my least favorite hood. So that in itself is an accomplishment.

I know Danielle, and I do apologize for my smart-A$$ attitude in my responce the other night. ;) I'm going through a very difficult time right now with my father, and it wasn't fair for me to blow off my frustrations at you ar anyone else. I need to remember that this is a public website that is open to any and all forms of reply's and opinions. I promise to you and anyone else that may have been offended by anything that I've said over the last week or so.......I swear it's nothing personal.

Without really going into it, or wanting to discuss it on a continued basis........my Father's battle with Cancer has basically come to the conclusion. We just found out 2 weeks ago that he has less than 6 months left. They say because of how rapidly it's ing to his liver, it will probably be more like 4 months.

So while I'm not going anywhere...:) .....you'll probably notice that I'll be here more on a Part-Time basis compared to how much it's been over the past 6 months. "PLEASE" don't take this as an excuse for my actions recently, because the last thing I want is for anyone to think I'm looking for an easy way out, or that I'm looking for sympathy........I've just come to think of you all as my friends, and I'd rather tell you straight out why I've been gone so much and also why I've been on edge.

So, if for any reason you guy's want to know about something, or need to ask me a question,....don't hesitate to send me an email or even a PM will tell me that I have one by email. So now that's that's out of the way, I'm going to post a few more pictures of my Hood Lock Installation. :D

Well Buddy.......you're in luck! ;) I actually posted a thread today with pictures that show the installation of the "Hood Locks"!! I"m not a big fan of the Hood "Pins", because you have to use a huge washer on the outside of the hood so that the cotter pin doesn't scratch the paint. AND with the hood locks you can actually LOCK the hood.

Anyway, check out the Exterior Section......you should have have no problem finding it since it titled: Hood Locks Installed. :D The pictures are a little blurry and a little big, but that's because my camera sucks on the higher resolution setting. :mad:

blue89vert 06-21-2006 03:09 PM

this is going to be the longest thread ever

paarman97maro 06-21-2006 04:01 PM

if people would just let it die, then it wont.

Sorry for bringing this up but cancer is a *****. It took my best friend last october ... He was 18. I regret spending more time with him ... And it sucks that he is gone. Moral of the story, let him know you love him. :D Anyway, I apologize for bringing it up but its hard not to when I know excatly what your going through.

Hood pins. Don't really like em either, but I got a hard-core set on my stock hood ... and I'm not sure why ;) ... Well, I sure don't want them on my future SS or 4" cowl even tho Arch's don't look bad at all. :D

blue89vert 06-21-2006 04:49 PM

ok lets let it die now

Amurican_Muscle 06-21-2006 05:53 PM

Dude ... I just wrote something from the heart to Arch and you have to come in here and waste both of our time by saying "ok lets let it die now" right after I talk about loosing my best friend to cancer. I'm holding my tounge right now, but just please think a little more before you post. :)

blue89vert 06-21-2006 06:21 PM

Really sorry bout that bro, i didn't even read what you said. Now that I did I feel really bad. Its just this thread has been going on forever. Then Paar said if people let it die it wouldn't go on forever. Right after I read what Paar wrote I said ok lets let it die now. Really sorry bout that though.
