Just went back and looked at the pics of the white trim. The silver still looks much better. I think you are on the right path there.

 

I would have two toned the seats. All White is too much it cuts down on the interest.

 

Yeah I've went ahead and painted the windshield garnish molding. I'm gonna leave it silver. It'll be fine

 

The one thing i knew i wanted was solid white seats. Didn't want inserts or nothing like that. Kinda minimalist. Only problem was pissing off the upholstery guy, didn't know he was a preacher so i took my stuff to another guy. Not the same quality, but he's trying. So i helped him out a little. Can't learn if nobody will let you work on anything i guess

 

Have you thought about some big silver flake and black&white pinstriping for the seat trim???

 

Are me and you brothers??? You nailed it man, that's kinda what i was thinking. Scary as fuck that we think alike..... what am I thinking now?

 

Except for the "big flake"lol, not in the mood for that at the moment

 

Beer or Moonshine...

 

Ohhh yeah! Dig the pinstripe idea. Or maybe paint the “cove” on the seat base black.

 

I'm out of shine Down to my last 2 country boy brewery... fallen upon hard times lol

How about paint the cove black and stripe the piece on the back Need a thumbs up emoji damnit! I'm sorry, that's the beer talking

 

@37hotrod and I agree on what needs to be done and he, apparently is a better communicator than I, so heed his advice

 

You got it buddy But what does "heed" mean lmao!

 

It means listen the F up!

 

Down to your last 2 beer's... OUT of shine... Can you guess what I'm thinking now???

 

Lmao! That's funny as hell

 

I need to go to the back of the farm and fire up the still? I'm gonna tell ya right now, this "pretty" stuff sucks ass! I mean, the windshield is in it! Let's hit the damn road!

 

Don’t laugh...I found the spot out behind one of the barns where the former owners had their still set up. I do plan on reinstalling one as soon as things settle down. Until then, I have an ample supply of shine in the pantry.

 

SON OF A BITCH!!! We GOTTA be brother's!!!

 

Well I tried something. Think I'll pull a black line around the white insert, and pinstripe the piece on the back with white and black.

 

I think you solved your problem!!!

 

Nailed it!

 

I stuck the garnish in. Of course it's gotta come back out, but I'm fitting and doing inventory

 

Actually I'm doing everything i can to avoid doing the bodywork

 

Just pretend it's a customer car @$185.00/hr. Oh, I forgot, that's how much we spend on them instead of make from them

 

I wish! I'd retire from the firehouse today! It's $40 an hour and people think I'm trying to take their souls

 

And that ain’t nearly enough compensation for what first responders go through. I oughta know...I used to be one. I still like you, even though you’re a hose jockey.

 

I'm sorry you didn't score higher on that test buddy but thank you for making my scene safe for all those years many props my friend.

 

Lloyd, now that your going to start on the body work, we're all waiting to see what kind of a bodyman and painter you are. Please keep us posted on your progress.
Don't know what EMT's and nurses make, but what ever it is its not enough. God bless them for their service.

 

Ah there's a Facebook for my shop that momma started, not my choice, and my shop is on highway 36, 2.5 miles east of the I64 exit 121. Stop by anytime. Today would be a good day. You can help sit the body back on a 39 Chevrolet.
