DatWifey Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 And a few more, of some pieces after finishing up painting them this evening after work. Quote Link to comment
Z chopper Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Whooo! Some forward progress this weekend! A few more pics of shit that's in the process of getting spiffed up where did you get those side window visors? Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Ha, those are actually for the Maxima. I got them from another user, who no longer has his Maxi, so he hit me up and sent them up the other week. They just happened to get blasted with some 510 stuff. Too much stuff for too many cars :blush: But, if you're looking for some for the 510, hit up Tristin. He recently put some on his..... but might not want to give up his source... :sneaky: Quote Link to comment

DatWifey Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 It's easy enough to find out via FB though.... :ninja: Quote Link to comment

DatWifey Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 We'll see if the sentiment of "diggin' it" and "looks good" keep up as I keep painting everything.... :D If not... :fu: I'm stoked for it to be finally rounding the bend to being able to put shit back together. 7+ years later.... it's about damn time! :hyper: I already know that Tristin most likely won't like our fully blacked out grille, but I'm okay with that :poke: ;) Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 I already know that Tristin most likely won't like our fully blacked out grille, but I'm okay with that :poke: ;) Yeah, not my thing, but Ill just be happy your Dime is on the road finally so Ill let it slide. Will it be done for POTD? Whenever it drives we need to hit up a place for breakfast like last year... have any sweet eateries around your new place? Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Def keep it up! Love seeing the updates. Been wanting to take the front apart on the 510 and get parts cleaned up such as the headlight buckets and grille. This is major inspiration and motivation for what it will be like at the end. Def makes it look worth the work Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Haha, I'm just giving you shit, Tristin. I actually appreciate that we all have different tastes. Makes it so that everything isn't so bland with everyone's rides being the same. And yeah, it's a ton of work to take everything off and dissect it, but it will be nice for this car to finally be clean again..... I use to daily this thing back in 2006. A coworker / friend of mine had her truck break down and needed a ride to work. I went to pick her up in this. She opened the door, looks in, looks and me and say, "really Lynch?!" with a complete look of disgust on her face. :rofl: The headliner was falling down, door panels falling off, the carpet had been ripped out, but there was still the remnants of horse-hair type shit floating all over the place, there was dirt and dust from living in NorCal for the prior 30 years.... it was pretty gross. So yeah, this will be nice to actually have it clean inside and throughout. It's a long process, but well worth it in the end. It's just all taking a whole hell of a lot longer than I had hoped (because I want to drive this shit already!), but it will all be worth it when we're done. :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
MicroMachinery Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 You're actually working on it. That's what matters most. It's great to see it coming together. 1 Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Haha, I'm just giving you shit, Tristin. I actually appreciate that we all have different tastes. Makes it so that everything isn't so bland with everyone's rides being the same. No doubt! Im sure whatever you do it will be great. I mean with 7yrs of work it better be good, right?

DatWifey Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 haha, oh, no, it hasn't been 7 years of work. It's been a bit over a year of actual work now. It's just been 7 years or so since the first shit was pulled off/out of it. Hence why I am missing random trim pieces and shit now. We've moved 4 or 5 times since we pulled the first parts off. :sleep: Quote Link to comment
Spoona_Jay21 Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Lovin the progress! Hope too see it done soon. Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 i wish my progress looked as good :/ Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 Thanks Jay, I'm hoping it will be done soon as well! Adam, if we had as many projects going on simultaneously as you do, I wouldn't be pulling every piece apart like this. I've just made it a point to only work on this car for now, until it's done this way (because it was desperately needed), and then move onto the next. Quote Link to comment
Eagle_Adam Posted April 24, 2013 Report Share Posted April 24, 2013 ya, im hoping to get back to that point...., A few more things on the goon, drop a motor and trans in my truck, wrap up and fire up my dads truck and then im back to wrenching on toys and not DD's!!!! Quote Link to comment

4perrev Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 I just read through your thread. Wow, nice just guys. I knew the 521 was great and now I see this one. Sweet job and nice touches along the way. That bondo situation was crazy, but now it's gone!! Keep up the good work. I'll have to follow this thread also. Quote Link to comment
q-tip Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Holy necro thread batman!!!!! Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted June 19, 2014 Report Share Posted June 19, 2014 Thanks for reviving this! :) We are actually hoping to get back to working on this again in the next few weeks. Life has been crazy, and we haven't done anything on this since buying our house almost a year ago now and having to pack up all of our shit and move for the third time in a year. So, hopefully this thread will be a little more active again soon with legit updates :w00t: Quote Link to comment
FirstDime Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 dam i was hoping i would get to the end of this and see it all finished :sneaky: great build so far, keep it up :thumbup: Quote Link to comment
DatWifey Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Haha, yeah, sorry, it's just a huge tease right now. And it's getting a little delayed again by another slight derailment in our plans.... but it will all come full circle at some point :lol: Quote Link to comment
