Not a great fan of white by its self or white and black . White with red should be awesome the red should make it POP

I don't think I've ever seen a bodyman work that quickly.  In my experience they all seem to work at the same speed, roughly half of everyone else.  Is he going to paint the car for Wayne also?

moparstuart

yes , if it gets warm enought i would imagine it will be in color soon, if not already  ?

I love body guys garage's, they're just filthy. You gotta admit that a giant orange engine in a white engine bay just pops out at you. Great pics, keep 'em coming.

Thats what i thought also.  the tool boxes have a layer of dust on them that you can never keep clean.  I used to work in a body shop and part of my job was to keep everything clean.  I was never out of work..  :-\

Is that statement a joke? JK

I'll take any pictures you wanna sent my way of either car. Does Wayne need a stripe to put on the car? If so I have an extra red one sitting here in the garage thanks to Doug S.

Specific pictures huh? Hmmm, how about date codes on the rear glass on both cars?

I noticed the K-member and steering box have paint on them also. Overspray, or were they treated before painting?

moparstuart

He's cheap 5 or 6k and your set .  Bring it on down 3 weeks tops and you'll be done.  Nice driver quality .

My car is a little different than Wayne's. Mine will need more metal replaced than just a trunk floor though. Would need quite a bit of work.

I would say so. I think that when I finally strip my car down its going to need a lot of work.

And i'll come up with $6000 by next year and maybe just maybe i can bring TC down for surgery.
