  2. so you cant stream the entire library of film with prime, its only a select few?
  3. Who uses the Amazon prime. How is the video quality and the streaming quality.... looking into it.
  4. the 27th is a saturday... either way Ill be there.
  5. Well after a couple long days and all nighters the components have all been rewired and the new dash and relay control panel is done. Im very pleased with the outcome overall. Still cant believe I used a piece of wood in the car from the beginning. I guess I was in a rush to get the car running last year. Hated how all my important gauges were down at the tunnel and when I really needed to see them I did not want to take my eyes off of the road/track.

  6. Factory Five GTM.... yum If I had 50-60k right now it would be the next build I would begin http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y216/1972nova/114.jpg
  7. I have found most places do not give 2 shits about the do not duplicate on keys. Give it a shot at a couple places...maybe even a local hardware store.
  8. How much for ammunition only and what kind is it. Drop me a pm
  9. So true! However we no longer live in a world of small mom and pop stores and people who will honestly cut you a price that's fair. You have to shop them because the mark up is retarded. In this world and economy everyone is out to get theirs and that is it. Sad....
  10. I dont know jason, I have done more then my share of homework on coatings. Over the past year I have had several contractors quote me and some have even refered me to shops that they have installed it and most of these shops were not even impressed, stating that the contractor had to come back and repair sections shortly after application. And these work companies that only do this type of stuff. You know I am not shy from doing work so I looked into renting a grinder and doing the prep in house and applying the armorseal 1000hs. Its a mixed bag from what I can tell where people have done grinding or shotblasting then etched the floor and still had adhesion issues. Materials are not a big deal Id be out 600-800 to do the floor on my own however I would have to rent a pods unit to store all my shit from my garage plus dissasemble my lift to do it all. I love the look but dont want it to chip/peel/wear out/fade/bubble 1-2 years later and have to do it all again. AJ quoted me a very Fair price for the RHINO which honestly would be the only other option Id even consider, but even at that price Id be close to having the money id need to getting an enclosed trailer....
  11. Both! I want it to look clean and also protection from future stains
  12. Hmm I dont really have too many cheap ass frills but I always price match things @ jegs. I always have my part numbers and then google that item until I find the cheapest price and have them match it. Most times its even cheaper then the racer discount. Also I shop at Advance auto parts almost exclusively for repair parts since they always have online discount promo codes. Anymore you gotta take what you can get, usually always shop online if and look for free shipping as well.
  13. Yeah I know... Alot of people actually refer to oil dry as kitty litter but dont actually know its called oil dry. I am on board with the muratic acid, It just seems most say that you need to actually degrease the slab prior to acid, and acid is really just for etching not cleaning. Wont acid actually open the pores of the concrete and make it more abosrbant and rough? I may go this route if its the best approach but would like to not go the grinding route since I am not going to coat the floor at this point. how so? I am on the fence about the coating due to the amount of welding, grinding and actually heavy work that is done in my garage (jack stands, floor jacks, engine/trans removals) I know I would be obsessive about keeping it looking like new and dont want to worry about hurting it in the long run then having to grind the floor down the road and re apply it.
  14. yeah Ill try it out when the spring hits. I guess Im looking to make a day of it. Pull all my equipment out of the garage and maybe rent a floor scrubber and with the use of my power washer completely clean the floor to as close to new standing. Chemicals that Ive heard used: Bond Lok Muratic Acid TIDE Liquid Oil Dry (kitty litter) lift the stain prior to chemical approach Zep Totally awesome Purple Power Diesel Fuel/Kerosene Mortar mix?
  15. As much as I am always in some very difficult debate on a garage floor coating,I honestly think I am just too tough on a floor. I have looked into doing my own garage floor or having AJ do the RHINO stuff. Its usually a debate whether I want to shell the money out or do the work. For now I think I will just try cleaning it. My questions are whats the best approach to lift stains and dark spots in concrete? I am thinking Id like to just get my concrete as clean as possible and see if I just want to roll that way instead of paying for a coating that could get damaged. Now my garage is 10 years old and its really not horrible, just have some areas that are real eye sores and would like to get the concrete super clean without mechanically grinding it. I am aware of Muratic acid which will probably be on the list but what else is reccomended. Also been searching garagejournal.com
  16. I have an older model Brown bed edger/trencher with two auger bits and extra belts. I bought it and have gotten much use out of it over the past year. If you are looking for that clean deep landscape bed edging this is the tool. Its gas powered and a commercial machine. I bought it from a commercial landscaper who took great care of it. Its in my shed and I can get some pics if anyone is serious. Also can show you the landscaping at my house to prove it does great around curved landscape beds and around trees just fine. FIRM at 425.00 here is link to company, if you know bed edgers...brown is a very old and trusted name http://brownproducts.com/Products/BedEdger.htm
  17. well it would still be hooked to my truck and backed upto my house so Im not worried about thief's where I am at.
  18. I am looking for an enclosed cargo trailer or car trailer that I could rent to keep onsite at my home for about a week and a half. I am needing to have some secure storage for some items in my garage while I do some construction work inside. I am looking for use around end of march beginning of april most likely. I have looked at PODS but for the 320-350 they want I think I will entertain other options. Would be willing to pay someone for a week and a half rental if anyone has anything of the like.
  19. LOL @ this thread...things aren't bad in central ohio at all. And LOL @ that article for using an Ohio town that was dissolved in 2004....almost 10 years later this article is slamming Ohio for New Rome.
