Zip saw or plunge saw

[triumphrick]

I have an 18v Dewalt zip saw for cutting out boxes in drywall that I have used for a number of other things and was wondering if this might be appropriate to use to flush mount my vhf and stereo radios? Anyone try it and had any success in fiberglass? Thanks, Rick

.... good eye! In its current state it's kinda hard to tell what car, but guess my screenname gives it away..
I hope to get back to it soon. I am on my second frame off. Got a lot of cool parts for it this time around. Definitely not stock..been a trailer queen for too long.
Thanks for the heads up..will go looking for those bits tomorrow.

Rick look for the ones for FRP if you go to Homie desperate . The TR3 I grew up with a british car nut we restored a 62 MGA MK2 before Pops passed and had a stash of parts for pretty much anything Brit including a Jag XKE tranny.

Used to drive a TR7, that was a quick car, pity I didn't know anything about cars back then, I never see them on the roads now.

Those were the Triumph downfall cars!! First overhead cam motor and tons of problems. Lots of Lucas ingnition problems.
I had the good motor in that body style. It was an 81 fuelie TR-8. Small block all aluminum block and heads. Good headers, nice cam and a good suspension upgrade and it would run with the Corvettes on a good road course. They only sold them for two years and then BL went bust...

Good memories of those MG's. Those MGA's were my first car. 56 and a 60. If you still have the parts, let me know!!
