T-shirts update #2
OK I am almost ready to start screen printing. Upon digging out my system I discovered that I was missing a table that fits under the flash dryer. The company I bought my system from never replied to my e-mail about replacement part so I built my own today with 3/4"...
1 Quart of photo emulsion stripper, pressure washer, and two hours later I "reclaimed" enough screens to use for the T-shirts project. It seems that six years is a bit long to leave photo emulsion on screens........ who knew? lol

T-shirts update
Some of the chemicals arrived today. I tracked the 1st shipment of shirts (100) should be here tomorrow. I have received a bunch of PM's and Facebook request for shirts and working on a excel document so I don't lose track. Right now I can cover everything (about 1k) guys...
Peter,
I have a springer seat. I have a extra twin sized 4" thick memory foam mattress I was thinking of trimming down/cutting up, I could use the PT Mat foam to make it a tad less spongy/squishy then reupholster/cover both pieces. Thoughts?

Thanks for the link Mike(1) I will need that for the driver seat right now it's covered in black duct tape.
Mike(2) I may take you up on the bench seat offer, once you get yours installed of course.

Well said Mike, my point exactly. I'd like to hear that story sometime. I'm going to track down OD Nylon fabric or Canvas and take Rydel up on his offer to reupholster my seats for me. Hey AMRAM(Mike2) If I score enough maybe he can do both of ours. That would be an inexpensive mod that...
Fuel pumps, alternators, and old wiring issues all can happen to all of these old trucks.
Being Devils advocate here but the most expensive upgrade had to be the rivet rims/super singles tire project..... well maybe that could have waited a bit? I mean you got those fairly soon after buying...
Thanks Dwayne, by each design I need to clarify I will only have one design, probably the one with the "tab" the other will be Ed's "star PN MV" design.

Just bumping, I updated my post # 4 with all the T-shirt information. There were some hiccups/rough start on this so please read the whole thing before posting or PM'ing me with your request.
Thanks,

T-Shirts
OK off to a rough start on the T-shirts project so I better not screw this one up!
OK I just ordered about $170 in chemicals/inks, what I need is numbers data like:
1. How many people want shirts, and how many shirts.
2. Type- short sleeve, long sleeve, sweatshirts, and hooded...
That was my first thought too, however it grows on you after a while. I think it will all be tan at some point but the red is not only new it was well done so I will wait a bit first.

Planned on just the Deuce but maybe both, I would need help driving one or getting a lift back to get it. I would just flat tow it but I still need the towing lights setup.

I forgot to mention I'm parked near the Fire Station and the Station CPT came out yesterday while I was tinkering with truck. Curiosity finally got to him and he had to find out more about my truck! Seems they have been trying to figure out what the deal was, even asked higher if they were...
