Yep, just like tuck & roll each job is it's own animal, I know you used to be able to buy diamond tuck and t&r by the bolt, but it's been a long time since I've seen it for sale anywhere.

I guess I'm just living too far in the past when you could also go to Mexico and get a damn good job, as long as you watched them and took your own materials, for about 1/10th what you would pay here.   ;)  I have found T & R but it's that hot seam stuff not the real stitched stuff.

Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole.

This was back in the 60's when most of you weren't around and our economy was booming.  Besides is was a good excuse for us kids to drive down and have some fun we couldn't do here in the States.   >:D

We are rulers of our own death.

So where do we get killer chrome plating at? Mexico. You can still get everything in Mexico that you could get there years ago, you just need a passport now, which is ironic because that's where the US is getting it's money from (fee's, red tape, fines, taxes, etc...) instead of it's/our expertise and labor.

It's called NAFTA and free trade.   ;D  It's all red tape to go that way and a free ride if you sneak in from there.   :mad:

Well, that's another thing to do this next winter.  I think I'll rattle can the areas that I have fixed, Magic eraser the seats I have now and then go enjoy it.  That is after I've made the minimum payment required on my credit card so I can buy some gas.  LMAO!!!  :banghead: :mad:  Just kidding about the credit card.  I've got lots of work to do around the house now and I just want to run the boat when I can.
