    I guess I got a little behind on this one. It's cool they are fronting the t-shirts. I've enjoyed this thread and would be glad to buy a t-shirt when they come in.

    That thing looks bad ass now. I can't wait to see some color on it.
    That old girl was rough . It has seen a hard life in Atlanta traffic for over 50 years and hit on every corner.
    The guy I bought it from will be really surprised.
     
  12. All i can say is I'm glad you didn't say to paint it black lol
     
  13. Thanks man, it'll be cool to see my name on a car when i go watch them race. I'm putting it on the windshield :D

    I have some more Summit 10 percent discount coupons from the Southeast Gassers. Our program worked well enough that they have continued it through the 2021 season.
    Just send me a PM and I will send you a discount code number .
     
  17. Mike and Lloyd, I am looking forward to seeing the car in paint. I’ve already made plans to go to Lyons Indiana to see the race. The great thing about SEGA is the access to the pits and being able to see and meet the drivers, last year we got to meet Colby Welsh(sp?). Getting to meet Mike and Lloyd would be the highlight of my summer.

    Your expectations of your highlights are set pretty low if meeting me will be the highlight, but I am honored to be held in that esteem. How about you Lloyd ?
    Now the pressure is on for you to travel to show up where the car is racing. I know how much you hate to drive. You need to show up to sign t-shirts. ;)
     
  19. Lol I'll send a cardboard cutout of myself. I'll be in London as far as I know :D

    I will have room for your cut out in the back of the wagon big guy. I can forge your signature close enough for a t-shirt. I will just hide behind your cut out and stick my arm out and sign.

    The funny part is that Lloyd's wife just read that He is taking her to London! You know the one just north east of EUROPE !!! :D lol Larry
     
  24. All of the bodywork is done. Tmrw I'll block it out and shoot the coves and the roof, then I'm at the firehouse Tuesday, back here Wednesday and I'll spray the rest. Then just gotta letter it ;) 20210307_141959.jpg 20210307_124411.jpg

    So cool ! We are really getting excited. I will be shooting the bumpers silver tomorrow afternoon.
    I have a little sanding to do to the front bumper after I cracked it and then had to fix the fiberglass.
    The rear bumper had some pitting that wouldn't polish out so I sanded and primered it and painting both of them to match.
     
  28. Got her all blocked out except for the hood 20210308_180852.jpg 20210308_180902.jpg 20210308_180917.jpg man, looking good ;)

    A Lloyd cardboard cutout, what a great idea! Pose it like the Josey Wales poster with two spray guns - Go Ahead, Make Mine Gray. The perfect motivational shop accessory for us DIY, "I ain't payin' that kind of money for a paint job" cheapskates. I'll buy one.
    You can join the other two critters that watch me while I work.... note the look on their faces.
