They have both 2- stage base coat - clear coat "systems" and the single stage, no clear. The two posts immediately above seem to refer to single stage. Restoration Shop AL Acrylic Lacquer system is an easy to use fast drying single stage Acrylic Lacquer product. Restoration Shop AE Acrylic Enamel system is an easy to use single stage High Gloss product designed for overall Automotive Refinishing as well as an excellent Fleet and equipment finish.

That looks to be 3/4's ACX, not the cheap stuff I have on my house 1/2 inch CDX. See the difference?

http://images.tcpglobal.com/chips/1936-Chevrolettruck-pg02.jpg Oh, I see, this TCP place lists the apple green as one they will mix, using their library.

https://tcpglobal.com/pages/restoration-shop You are referring to this I suppose. You have the Acrylic, or urethane and the hardener and reducer. It is advisable to choose which you want, and buy the complete "system." If the shade of green is very important to get right I would contact a PPG or Du-Pont dealer and see what they say about mixing to those codes above. Maybe it is true they can't accurately mix them even with the code, because those tints are not available. Apparently you are saying this TCP Global can mix the Apple Green just like you want?

To tackle that rust you will need to remove the seats and carpeting, and the drivetrain, to expose all the floor, and the bottom edges of the fenders and such. Get a fair assessment of how much metal work is needed. Whether you want to get it running first, and tackle "one component at a time" is up to you. But the real work will be on the body.

I thought the code tells them how to mix it? The PPG and Dupont codes are listed. Are you saying with those codes they still don't know how to mix it? 1936 Apple Green, code = 257, Ditzler/PPG code = QDE379 , Dupont code = 93-1650 , Sherwin Williams = 8360, Martin Senour = 115 http://paintref.com/cgi-bin/colorcodedisplay.cgi?color=Apple Green&tditzler=QDE379&rows=50

It's nice to see the electric buses in San Francisco, and the trolleys. They don't need batteries. Wish it were the same for electric cars on the highway. I have actually wondered about this.

I might catch it as a specator at one of the "Lunch Stops."

Get on the list for the next one here - http://www.greatrace.com/waitinglist The 2019 Hemmings Motor News Great Race presented by Hagerty will start in Riverside, Calif., on Saturday, June 22, and finish is Tacoma, Wash., on Sunday, June 30, race organizers have announced. This marks the first time the Great Race, the worlds premiere old car rally, will start and finish on the West Coast. The 9-day, 2,300-mile adventure will bring 120 of the worlds finest antique automobiles to 18 cities in California, Nevada, Oregon and Washington. More than $150,000 will be awarded to top finishers in multiple divisions. We are excited to start the 2019 Great Race in Riverside, director Jeff Stumb said. Especially with Riversides great connection and long history of racing at the old Riverside Raceway. It will be the first time the event has been to Riverside since a 2001 overnight stop. We are also pleased to be working with our friends at LeMay Americas Car Museum to host the finish of the 2019 Great Race. We have started in Tacoma in 1996 and 1998 and we finished there in 2005, but this will be the first time we have had the honor of holding the race in conjunction with Americas Car Museum. Teams and cars from Japan, England, Australia, Canada and every corner of the United States will converge in Riverside in mid-June with vintage automobiles dating back as far as 1916. There are more than 450 people just in our entourage from all around the world, Stumb said. And along the route they will see amazing sites, including Lake Tahoe, Redwood National Park, Northern Californias coastline, Crater Lake, Mount Hood and Mount Rainer. Overnight cities along the 2019 route are scheduled to include Lancaster, Calif.; Gardnerville, Nev.; Chico, Calif.; Eureka, Calif.; Grants Pass, Ore.; Bend, Ore.; Vancouver, Wash.; and Olympia, Wash. Lunch cities are scheduled to include Victorville, Calif.; Bishop, Calif.; Grass Valley, Calif.; Ukiah, Calif.; Brookings, Ore.; Crater Lake, Ore.; Hood River, Ore.; and Longview, Wash. The Great Race, which began 36 years ago, is not a speed race, but a time/speed/distance rally. The vehicles, each with a driver and navigator, are given precise instructions each day that detail every move down to the second. They are scored at secret check points along the way and are penalized one second for each second either early or late. As in golf, the lowest score wins. Cars start and hopefully finish one minute apart if all goes according to plan. The biggest part of the challenge other than staying on time and following the instructions is getting an old car to the finish line each day, organizers say. Each stop on the Great Race is free to the public and spectators will be able to visit with the participants and to look at the cars for several hours. It is common for kids to climb in the cars for a first-hand look. Cars built in 1974 and earlier are eligible, with most entries having been manufactured before World War II. In the 2017 Great Race a 1932 Ford won the event from Florida to northern Michigan. The 2019 winners will again receive $50,000 of the $150,000 total purse. A 1916 Hudson Pikes Peak Hillclimber, a 1916 Chevrolet Phaeton, a 1917 Peerless Racer and a chain-driven 1918 American LaFrance Speedster are the oldest cars scheduled to be in the 2018 Great Race from Buffalo, N.Y., to Halifax, Nova Scotia. Over the decades, the Great Race has stopped in hundreds of cities big and small, from tiny Austin, Nevada to New York City. When the Great Race pulls into a city it becomes an instant festival, Stumb said. Last year we had five overnight stops with more than 10,000 spectators on our way to having 250,000 people see the Great Race during the event. The event was started in 1983 by Tom McRae and it takes its name from the 1965 movie, The Great Race, which starred Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, Natalie Wood and Peter Falk. The movie is a comedy based on the real life 1908 automobile race from New York to Paris. In 2004, Tony Curtis was the guest of the Great Race and rode in his car from the movie, the Leslie Special. The Great Race gained a huge following from late night showings on ESPN when the network was just starting out in the early 1980s. The first entrant, Curtis Graf of Irving, Texas, is still a participant today. The events main sponsors are Hemmings Motor News, Hagerty, Coker Tire and Reliable Carriers.

goose may be cooked, beginning the roasting process as we speak. $0.7 Billion loss this quarter, expected $0.5 Billion loss next quarter. Sales in Europe very poor. "The Palo Alto, California-based company posted an adjusted loss per share of $2.90 for its fiscal first quarter. This was wider than the $1.30 loss per share consensus analysts were expecting, according to Bloomberg-compiled data."

So this is directed at me? I really don't get it.

I worked on this house recently in Point Reyes. It has 5kw of solar panel generating capacity, which is quite a lot. Do the owners drive electric vehicles? No. BMW X5 SUV and some other vehicles. They are rich people who live in San Francisco, and this is their second home, something like an hour drive north. And I commuted one hour each way in my gas burning truck for the days I worked on this home. My take is the energy saved by these Photo voltaic panels is a drop in the bucket. It has been said that if everyone had electric cars tomorrow, there would not be the megawatts available to charge them. The "grid" would collapse. I'm sure that's true. If you had some engineering skills and were motivated, you could do some calculating. For instance, worldwide oil consumption is up to about 95 million barrels per day. Would you like to replace that with electrical energy? You could convert that 95 MBPD to btu's then to kw-hours, or since that is per day figure 24 hours, and you can get kw of generating capacity required. And the solar panels on the house only can generate at peak capacity for a few hours per sunny day, so a 5 kw system probably averages well below 1 kw over a 24 hour period. On the other hand nuclear plants produce quite a bit but are being shut down, like this one: Diablo Canyon was completed in 1973. The two 1,100-megawatt reactors at produce nearly 9 percent of California's electricity and provide enough power for 3 million people a year.

Here's a pic so people don't need to go to a link to see it. BTW the cnbc link did not work for me because I have a pop-up ad blocker, and was asked to disable it, and chose not to.

Grass Valley should be a nice place to live, peaceful, in the foothills, lots of trees. Been decades since I've been though there though. One of my coworkers retired to there, back in the 1980's, from Anaheim, Orange County he went there.
