Re: Project "Miss Stress"

The rendering looks sweet. Whats it looking like now?




Just got back from Las Vegas. It was an awesome business trip and even had some time to treat it like a vacation. It was about 40+ degrees though, it only got to a high of 60 over the week but it was sweet.

AZ is always warmer, but in april it should be in the 70s. I'm going back to Vegas in March for work and in July with my G/f for a vacation.

Re: Project "Miss Stress"

Not much progress, just rounding up the last bit of parts during the cold months so I'm ready to paint and finish the interior. I will be ordering gauges this week.

I am about 90% sure I'm ordering these but I've changed my mind before.

Re: Project "Miss Stress"

I told you I would change my mind. The CI gauges would have been almost $700 after buying the gauges and the sending units. I picked up some Dolphin gauges (black w/red needles, Chrome rings) for $170 now I have alot of extra cash for other parts.

PICS soon - hopefully I get them this weekend cause I have a little time to work on it this weekend.

Re: Project "Miss Stress"

Sorry 2001x your not Nick. Whats your name anyway.


Didn't get the gauges yet, GD it all. Oh well. Once I get the dash complete I might try to find someone to paint the dash for my so I don't have to wait on the weather to get warmer, in MI it could be May or later. My garage is not totally heated.

Hopefully the gauges come today. Only 2more weeks of coaching basketball then I'm free. Its had me tied up 5-6 days a week. More parts soon.

Re: Project "Miss Stress"

Yeah I've got a heater. I guess I just want a booth or a garage with continuous to let everything cure right.

I finally got my gauges last night. I know what I'm doing this weekend.

Re: Project "Miss Stress"

I got a 6 gauge set of Dolphins. Black w/chrome ring and red needles for cheap off Ebay from Dolphin and saved $50 off the price on their website. I'm only using 5 of them cause I'm not using a fuel gauge with my fuel tank.

Thanks but the s10 is far from a truck yet. At least the sonoma will be done soon so I have room to work on the other.
