Anyone know someone who can paint parking spot lines? - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

SoStock92 · 09-27-2009, 09:51 PM

So my mothers '95 Sub 6.5TD 2500 turns out to have a bad frame... that was covered in bondo/expanding foam (I will have to post that later...). She needed a new truck because she and my step dad are going on vacation. So, on Friday she and I went out and car shopped - came home with an 03 (04 maybe? I forget) Lincoln Navigator for her. Its nice - loaded, and relatively cheap. Still has a warranty and so on.

However, I didn't realize that we now have 7 cars in the household and I can't maneuver any of them in the driveway graciously!

I joked about having a company come out and spray parking lines and lay down curbs.

There's another E34 BMW away at college right now. Not sure where it'll park. Figure that out when the time comes I guess.

On a serious note - anyone know of a nice clean looking set of rims for an (assume) 03 Navigator? The wheels that came on the car are nice, but the matte/texture silver paint is peeling between the chrome spokes. I foresee it looking like crap in like a year. Aftermarket wheels are so much cheaper than new stock ones. They'd have to be 18's and fit 265/60/18s. There are so so many gaudy chrome wheels... saw some all-black that were hot. Anyway, any ideas I appreciate it!

I wish - I have one "stall" if you will, and its tools, rims, parts, etc. The rest is family crap that we started to sort but never finished.

Theres room in there for a car, i bring mine in to work if its a multi day proj.

Theres no 220v in there so its hard to run big tools

Though, I almost have them convinced we need a 4 post lift.

russiankid · 09-27-2009, 11:18 PM

Just get the driveway extended. That what we did because we have 4 cars and they wouldn't. I parked my Honda in the backyard for some time.

It don't matter how big it is, it can still be packed. 7 cars, for a family of how many? If I didn't see that house I would have had to ask... What time do they pile into the landscaping truck and go to work?

I agree, no lines or curbs, if anything, more blacktop.

SoStock92 · 09-28-2009, 12:19 AM

3 people now, 4 when sister is home from school. She has her car.

I can't move out - I have it to easy. My rent is to fix our cars and keep them going. Parents are laid back as hell (they'd have to be with all the **** I work on in the driveway).

haha they're crazy but they're not that crazy

There's a parking spot out front of the house on the driveway - I told my sister "Sorry, that's where you'll have to park". LOL She didn't go for it.
