I have my dad's old garden bench. Looks like it's made out of oak with the wrought iron. The finish is flaking and the wood is turning gray. We're in Northeast Ohio, and Dad never covered it or brought it in for the winter. After I sand it, what is the best finish for oak for outdoor use? Thank you!
Thank you to everyone who responded to my previous posts. I listened to your feedback and got Trixie cleaned up accordingly. She got the new top and rally stripes, plus paint touch up, new brakes, schrader valve, plus some other maintenance. I'm very happy with the results, and I hope Dad is looking down and pleased with the results.
Hello all,
Is there any reason why I shouldn't add a blue hood bird to Trixie? She's white with blue trim, and I'm replacing the current white top with a blue one after the summer. Here's the current hood and a mock-up of what I was thinking. Or is this a huge no-no? TIA!
My second question of the day, thank you for putting up with me! I need to replace the soft top on a 96 TransAm. It's a white car with a white top, which is cracked and dirty. See photo. I was thinking about replacing it with a blue top to match the blue trim. I did up an AI rendering of a blue top. What do you think, stick with white or go blue? Thanks!
Is it worth installing these tonneau covers on my '96 convertible? I guess I'm worried about getting caught in the rain and needing to get the top up quickly! I also gotta figure out how to install them. I can't find the instructions in Dad's paperwork. Thanks!
Hello all, I just inherited my dad's 96 TransAm with the LT1/5.7L V8. Does this engine require the higher octane gasoline (93)? I'm assuming it does, please confirm! Thanks!
