Please note that these are molded resin NOT plastic kits . The master started as the Revell PT Snap kit . Purists may flip out when you turn over the base and see that in keeping with the PT roots the spare is outside and underneath.
The dash is also PT based

When I pull the parts outta the bags I'll post up some more pics.


If they are of interest to you, please PM me your email address and I'll let you know how to get one, or more!

Please be aware that ye of little patience will be pacing and wringing your hands waiting!!. His resin business is a hobby. I ordered mine June 29/16 and they arrived last week.

Finally got the chance to order some SSC springs from ZZPerformance. The ride is a lot better than I thought.

That's a good look TT, very cool buddy!

Drove mine back from the Oncologists, there's about a 45 minute window before I start turning green from the Chemo, and I hate having to dive out of Paddy to perform a "Technicolor Yawn" in the gutter.

Thumbs up Bringin the " Hearse" Back to life

Bought my 2006 LT,179,500 kms, 4 weeks ago and last weekend cleaned her up, replaced the oil with full synthetic, new air and cabin filter, pulled out the passanger front door speaker and replaced, the corroded connector, this sunday will install custom seat covers and new floor mats, she goes in next week for some front end work, needs links,( ordred moogs from amazon),my mechanic will do a through inspection, I turned a blind eye to a few things to be honest when i bought it, I knew that i was going to have some stuff to do because even tho they saftied it, I have my suspicions that it was all with minimum effort and cost....I was born at night, just not last night but from the moment i sat in it and started up the clattering and chattering engine, I was hooked,I put in a full tank of premium gas last weekend after the oil change, and put 439 kms on her this week, haven't seen t/c light since and the engine is running smooth and surprisingly quiet. The t/c light and accompining P0011 code had me worried but not once has it come on all week, I have a scanner and was clearing it on a daily basis, I absolutely love this car/truck whatever it is. I have had a couple estimates to repair the few small areas of surface rust, and fix the paint but haven't found a shop I feel comfortable with the search continues, so I guess, not so much what I did to her today,but another drink of premium,just for ****s and giggles, anyways I put in a 10hr day today so ................oh found a set of cross members for my roof rack on Kijijji for 80 dollars, picked them up today, so that counts

Ron, with the support of my family here in Carolina, and my family here at ChevyHHR.net, I'll do my best to beat this and be around for many more years.

As for the "did" part, I felt well enough to take Paddy down to Charlotte for a complete Professional Detailing as I'm no longer able to do it myself.

In keeping with our rules of "No Free Advertising", I can't mention Stephanie's company by name or link her Site here.

But if you reside in the Charlotte Metro area, shoot me a PM, and I'll send you her info.

As far as how Paddy came out, photos will be coming soon, but let's just say he went from positively perfect to "Jaw Dropping" in four hours.

You can now fall into his Silverstone Metallic paint, it looks like polished crystal, thanks Steph!
