We BOUGHT (hahahaha! ya!) some fiberglass cloth and some weird sort of resin that you put on the fiberglass so it becomes really strong. We'll use that to fill in the gaps. It's going to be friggin awesome, yo. Also BOUGHT (boomja!) some sparkley spray paint that sort of matches the car's color, since the car's paint job is a piece of crap. I have some LM3914 chips, AKA LED drivers, in the mail from freaky deaky Thailand (the child molester capital of the world). I'm going to make 7 battery monitors like on the Forkenweenie. hehe. This will be necessary because I'm going to get used batteries from Pick-A-Part in Tumwater, Washington, next to the Olympia Airport. It will help me remove the crappy ones, and let me know their state of charge.

Great news! I lost out on the gall dern no good secret thing on ebay! It was a Bubba Contactor (starting for $9.99). Get it, Bubba Gump shrimp?
