  • Replacing the floor and floor braces in my 1964 Impala. Halfway patching it was my original plan but I felt the need to do it right. I bought all of the floor parts from Hubbards Impala.

      That music app thing is kinda pricey but I agree it’s just what I’ve been missing. My edit stuff has music but it’s nothing worth using.

    I'm with you 100% on not wanting to cut up a car with paperwork... Getting harder to find these days, but sometimes you ain't got a choice. Those LEDs do weird stuff on camera... And all those shells were nuts man!! You get it? Haha!!

    Look at the rode wireless go 2 for the audio, you know what it did for mine with the 1st gen, the 2nd gen has back up onboard audio if the camera fails to catch it. Not cheap but not many things that are worth a crap are.

    So about the light, Florence lights do to me what leds do on cameras. I had a hard time reading in school cause the 100 Florence lights would turn white book pages into 3d jello with the black letters. Gotta turn pool table lights off when I play too cause they make the balls shadows bounce back n forth. Apparently nobody else see them flashing all the time or something
