My son used to work at NPD. He said they sold UPI often. Look decent.

Z4,
I have used PUI before on my Camaro. It seemed to work okay for me. I wasn't sure about the quality difference between PUI and Legendary....not to mention the difference in dollars...

Default Chalmers Community Days Car Show

Got the opportunity to take both "Babe Blu" & "Blu BiYu" to our local Car Show on Saturday!..
We had a great time and the best part was that God gave us a beautiful day!
Second best was that the two cars had a bunch of lookers and questions! Love this part of it no matter how many times I told just what took place on the 71 LeMans Sport....
Clark Gick advised me the next step on her is to sand her down and get the "Blu" paint mixed....I'm ready for THAT!!

Ditto, Kurt! Been enjoying your progress and updates as you go. She's looking excellent, and I bet you're itching to get out driving!

Keep up the great work!

Default New Headliner!

I received my latest headliner from REM. I had it laid out and measured it before cutting the loops to install the bows.
Now have it installed with the clips. This one is a winner! ...
I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Ames Performance for not only taking care of their customers, but a huge shout out to Jeremiah and Adam. Whom without my working with them on this headliner issue, would have been nearly impossible to get to this GREAT result!...
Also kudos to REM as they digested our findings and simply sent a new one to my doorstep!...

Thanks JS,
I have always wanted white interior! I just about pulled the trigger on my 1968 Camaro, but decided not and went with black...
