The Mustang and Camaro were the exact same color. I had the Mustang painted in 1978 after seeing a new Camaro that color. Who knew that 5 years later I would buy a 1978 Camaro the same color. The Ranger was very close to the same blue. They were more of a bright/medium blue than Suzuka. Somewhere between Suzuka and Laguna Blue Pearl.

This is a better representation:

I love building bird houses and feeders
I lied, I went back to the drawing board
I found a tube that was 18" tall, not 13" like the old one, so I decided I needed to revise the top design so it will be more than enough to carry the extra weight
This top now includes a piece of 3/16" thick steel bar stock...






That is one little overbuilt top...
When it comes to Cedar and outdoors, I use a lot of extra glue and I don't worry about seepage
The dark stuff on the joints and corners is a top quality exterior wood glue, Titebond III, just love the stuff


Man I wish the paint would dry faster...

OMG
The Ford and Chevy people are up in arms now
You painted a Ford a Chevy color




IF
- Spa yellow was not available in 2002
- Monte Carlo Blue was available in the USA in 2002
THEN
- I would have had a blue S2000

AND
- I blame that reasoning on the fact that my 1st Honda, GEN1 Accord Hatchback, built in Japan not Ohio, was an amazing shade of blue, much like Aash's S, and I loved that little Accord!

Doug, for some reason I think the Monte Carlo is just too subtle for you....You seem to like the loud colors.
