Re: Bare metal re paint: stripping off the old paint?
I'm going to ask for a re-quote on a glass out shell etc with paint left on for them to sort. As a pm I've had, then THEY have total control and liability for the durability of the paint job. I've never used a DA sander. How long to sand a painted 911 to metal? Electric DAs are a big thing now. All...

I'm not looking to slog for hours getting it all down to metal, just a chemical 'nitromores' type product. Any real experiences out there please?[/quote] Stick some plastic s...

Re: Kombi Instrument
Oh and a original small fuel gauge was at least 900 plus !!! Que? It may be a challenge getting the right 52mm gauge that works with the original sender, but they are available and for about 10% of that. (Unless they mean the original item: but who has ever seen one, and would recognise it if they ...

Re: Kombi Instrument
Yeah I looked at that route. Hollywood wanted about 800 and palo about six. But both said they would use their own senders and create their own guage.
