Thanks Noobs!!! Much appreciated

Just called to see how much we're at now. S4it's at 29 dollars for an 11 ounce aerosol from my regular paint store. It's 32 on Amazon.

I'm gonna need some base coat (already have some clear left over from Frankie) when I do the fender, unless I find one that's the right color.

Thanks again Noobs!

Best two things for a cold are sleep and rest. Eyes SHUT rest. TV & reading somehow short circuit the benefit. I use Vicks NyQuil, or, enough Drambue in hot water in a preheated 0.5L beer stein, to sweeten it. Add Drambue and sample until it's perfect.

From a bare metal roof, what layers do I need?
Primer, then maybe a filler-primer
Color, then maybe clear?
What's a base coat???

I took NyQuil last night (partially why my brain took a minute to get going)... it works great. Haven't heard of Dramabue though. Is that OTC?

If the bare metal roof is new/free of defect, then primer, base, clear. Or primer and single stage. I'm doing single on the core support, since it's under the hood.

At the first sign of a cold, take a shot of whiskey and chase it with a full glass of oj. People will say this doesn't work, but they are wrong. I've prevented countless colds from setting in with Grandpa's Cough Medicine.

My dad's regimen is "Three B's:" Bourbon, Bath (hot as you can stand), and then Bed.

I load up on Vitamin C (1,000 mg 4x a day), Zinc (2x per day), Echinacea (4x per day) and Aspirin (2 tabs 4x per day). I couple that with rest and lots of water.

I'm on the C and Zinc.

EDIT: I actually use these as cough drops.

I went through my stuff.... found the manifold. Found the gaskets (not sure I trust these DNJ's). Also found my replacement dipstick tube. I can't find the exhaust stud/bolt kit though.... Not sure where that went.

I have searched high and low.... can't find this stuff. I had to make sure I'm not dreaming, and Amazon says I did indeed order this stuff.
