You've obviously picked the right body shop.   :2thumbs:

It's not the shop. :Twocents: ;)

It's the dude pullin' the trigger on the paint gun. :2thumbs: :coolgleamA:


It takes a hell of a lot more than a painter to make a car look like that.

I can only take credit for the metal work and general fabrication.

He took it from there. :coolgleamA:

You did a beautiful job with the metal work. The guy that made it straight and smooth did a great job too. Looks Stellar.

Now comes the scary part.

Well....for me it would be. As clumsy as I am, the perfection would have a very serious chance of being messed up.

I'm nervous just watching.

I can not think of anything that has not been said about how nice this car is.  :drool5:

If it keeps getting better, and I suspect it will, a large towel isn't going to be enough. :rotz:

Working with these painted parts IS extremely nerve racking :eek2:

When it comes time to put the hood on, I think I'm just going to go ahead and shit myself before hand

just to get it over with ::).


I keep telling myself that this is the only car I'm ever going to go this crazy with.

In fact, this may be the last car I do, period.

If I have ANY sense, it will be. :Twocents:

If we started a thread of "shop disasters" I would lead the way with all my blunders - I think I redid my trunk lid 5 times :)  God may never say, "Ooops", but I do - too often :)  I get ahead of myself and not protect things enough - plus I want to see the car not all taped up and protected, it keeps me motivated - then I pay for it - oops...
