    Grave Robber Body With More Than Just Paint

    I Am Using Alclad II Lacqer Chrome For Lexan. I Am Doing The Chrome First Due To Some Of The "Things" I Will Be Doing On This Lid. But Most Of All I Do Not Want To Risk The Mask Causing A Negative Affect. I Did Get To Test The "Demon" LED's Today At Work But Time Ran Out Before I Got To Test...

    Quick Paint Tip For "New To Air Brush"

    Gearing for Savage XL running k4.6??

    One of the best things about the Savage 25 Is I found the trans "3 speed" is a direct bolt in upgrade. The Dif'z are drop in replacement as well, from a newer Savage.
