I had the luxury of having the car a few days. Since the temps were in the 20s, I didn't work too long each night, only a few hours each night. I need a space heater. Enjoy the pics.

Nice...I love the older Mercedes clear coat. Very easy to cut with great end results.

Great job Mark. It looks much better! How is OHC working for you?



I purchased a small electric Quartz heater from wal-mart and it does the job. For $39.99 well worth it.

 

[TRANS4M]

I'm liking the OHC, but I think I'm using too much. I get alot of dust. I think I just need more time with it to learn the product.



I'll look into that heater.

Thanks for the compliments all.



Wes - you'd really like this one with Kleeman twinscrew, headers, and an assorment of other "goodies".

I'll look into that heater.

Part of it is the cold. It seems to dust a little once it gets under around 40 degrees. Cutting back on the amount you use does help.



Excellent job on that CLK, looks beautiful in the afters! :woot:

 

[TRANS4M]

Thanks for the compliments all.



Charisma - He still has his 430.



DieselMDX - It has a twinscrew supersharger, headers, exhaust, custom frontmount heat exchanger, etc. It's fast. 11s fast.



Scottwax - I had a feeling the cold played a part in the dusting. That's it! I need a better heater in my garage.

Lowes down here was clearing out most of their heaters about a month ago.
