Case was power washed. Talk about messy...
I only had it for a 2nd gear syncro replacement and a new output shaft.

I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Speaking of stupid and such, I'm curious about how many people don't realize that pic is PSed.

Re: So I have Alan's transmission....
Didn't realize when I had seen first time, doh.
Yeah I can tell PS if I just stop and look at it trying to think.

Someone who shall remain unnamed asked me how much the paint cost. I'm rather amazed this unnamed person was fooled at all...Speaking of stupid and such, I'm curious about how many people don't realize that pic is PSed.

Well Shit!
Who did the PS? I still think it looks like it was spray painted.

Bah...in my defense, I didn't look closely at it...and I've told you that my contacts are old and have been drying out at night.
I think I need a new prescription too. I was having trouble focusing in the viewfinder the last couple of days.
I may just have to give in and get my eyes checked rather than waiting on one of these two jobs to come through with the benefits.

Hey...we all know I'm old.
But my eyes have always been bad. Glasses since the second grade. Scares me sometimes...my eyes are my livelyhood.

Ever worked in PS? If you've altered a car's color before, its very easy to see how you get a look like that messing with hue/saturation/lightness and notice its fake if you're actually trying to consider it.

I used the airbrush tool with a 10% opacity. I wanted that spray can look.
