[QUOTE="Adam-NLV, post: 102917, member: 3868"] Mad Proper respect to racerX for finishing up my 81' Speedometer!!:77: As you can see, he went through the unit, repaired a dent on the side (that I wasn't even aware of)! He didn't bondo it but braised it with metal filler. Plain Awesome work. Also removed a dent from the trim ring repaired the gasket, repainted the unit, resealed it and oh yeah.... rolled back the mileage to zero, which is no easy task. The only thing he didn't do is bake it in the Vegas sun @ 99F for 5 hours, which I gladly am taking care of right now (rotating it every 30 min). This will make the paint baked-on and almost impervious to scratching. My hats off Bob, you the man.:usa2: ps. Any imperfections in the pictures you see, were caused by [U]me[/U] and my rookie missteps.
