so what happens when you get bored and have a few buckets of paint.. and a supra

[boosted1jz]

LOL jk i would never paint my own car, unless its a beater and its just to be funny

that being said

so over the past few weeks ive been getting bored with my living room.... so i re-painted some of it

of course i had to throw in some redneck ingenuity into the equation... i was too lazy to drive 15min to borrow my dads ladder lol

here are the almost complete pictures

and because i was in a tinkering mood.... i decided to pull the dash on my supra.... to replace the heatercore and a/c evaporator.... and to clean out the oil from my POS autometer liquid filled gauges...


all in all id say i had a somewhat productive weekend and week so far

what do yall think?!

Does this red color you used have a certain name?

I like it, I wanna do our bedroom in a red like this.

 

[boosted1jz]

yes, its a BEHR color, code S-H-150 its called Chianti

you need to put down a dark color primer or you will be going over the wall a few times to get the correct color, atleast thats what the lady at home depot told me >.<

i put 2 coats to make sure

looks pretty good.

I have that tv stand/ladder too btw, that I got from walmart, but the glass shattered on mine years ago...

 

[boosted1jz]

LOL whats even more sad is that that tv stand is acting like a aquarium stand right now!! but its the perfect size, and they want $200+ for the stand for this aquarium... tv stand was $75 and holds more

Looks like someone had a wknd working around the house. Paint looks good Chris.

yea it was a very house filled weekend... i cut the yard too... still havent gotten to trim the hedges though, thats for this weekend

and if my parts ever come in, ill get to re-install the dash so i can drive my car again! but this time with AC hopfully lol

 

[7MGTESUPRAMAN]

i did a lil yard work today still have to edge but oh well it will get done sometime. how's your car doing? I remember you saying that it had a wiring problem the last time I saw it but that's been over a year ago at the supra meet Eric set up.

 

[boosted1jz]

yea im still chasing that wiring issue, but another forum member may have helped me with that.... ill find out once the dash is back in and a new battery is installed.....

 

[7MGTESUPRAMAN]

That's good to hear, I think I want to go the 1JZ route if something else major happens to my 7M.

You probably need a knock sensor rewire.
