[DML] Re: DMCH Budget Restoration Program

["jtrealtywebspannet" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You don't necessarily have to replace interior parts. I have had very good results with Plasitcolor's spray dyes for the vinyl parts and Leatherique's dye for the leather. A cracked binnacle can be fixed with filler and sprayed with vinyl dye. Not perfect but can be done to come out nicely. Keep track of your costs, try to use as many used (but serviceable) parts as you can to keep the costs down. Have fun on your project!

I'll be tacking a few projects I've never tried before, including re-graining an entire car because someone painted it. I have my work cut out for me on this one, it needed someone who was willing to give it a ton of TLC to get it back on the road. The fun is just begining... wait till you see thie pictures of this one! The good news, is the frame is solid.

Obviously the more you can buy at once the better the discount you can get. It will also help with the shipping costs. Shop around. They are not the only vendor that you can get parts from.
