I went by the shop that is fixing my roadster that got hit a year ago. I decided to have the entire car repainted, not just the repaired areas. I'm sure glad I did. These pictures don't really show the nice job he did. I'm picking it up on Monday to begin the long process of re-***embly. It'll be fun though. The best part of the whole deal is, there were no surprises when we went over the bill.
Looks great Paul! I hope you have some good roadster weather soon, not like here. I mowed my yard yesterday and today 2" of snow....
Actually, I hope we don't have any roadster weather for a month or so. That way I won't be tempted to rush this thing together. I'm going to have to go very slow, I don't want to mess up that nice paint job. Cost me more than the $500 paint job I got in 1997. I got a peak or two of you at the Round Up in Denise's post. Looked like a really great time. Looks like John Swander made the trip down in his neat "5 winda."
It was done at Bob Coffey's Hot Rod and Custom in Hanson, M***. He's on Rt 27. His shop is full on nice stuff being made nicer.
Hey Paul, Looks very shiny (i.e. nice job)!! I guess you wont want to go to Bonneville now and get salt all over it huh??? NOT!!!! Paul
It's looking real good and moving along nice now Paul. I can't wait to see you back on the road all dressed up again! Chop?????

[QUOTE=LeadSledMerc It's looking real good and moving along nice now Paul. I can't wait to see you back on the road all dressed up again! Chop????? It'll start going back together on Tuesday. Alex has lots of lines to lay on her. The chop is still on the table...just not a high priority til Fall. Still haven't found anyone in NE that'll do it. YET
Thirtycoup; thats great paul, you must be stoked now!! the roadster looks fantastic. we took a drive down to keith's tuesday night, his progress is looking great too. can't wait for the season ( and the weather ) to get rolling here, what do you think? you going to have it ready for dennis o'briens party? see you soon man, mike There's a lot to do before she'll be back on the road. But man o man, I can't wait to start making noise again. When is Dennis' party?
When do us AZ guys get to see it in person again? Looks really good Paul, enjoy it this summer. jerry
Me-ohsS&C;Very nice, bet you can't wait to get it back together.[/QUOTE] I've been chomping at the bit all winter to get going on her. Now it's time for some fun.
Really looks good Paul. If you have the contact info for the shop could you email it to me some time. I want to talk to them about my TCI before Dave calls me to finish up the 34. Mark told me about your recent find! Wow, a new dream and project.
