    The people who bought my buick sold it to a guy in Hollister and he needs a paint chip in the fender fixed, can someone reccomend a good painter? I guess Cole is not too far away in Salinas?

    The new owner also asked my opinion, he wants to put ghost flames on it and new wheels to give it the "Jesse james" look as he called it. :rolleyes: But it's his now.

    Can you imaging ruining this with ghost flames?

    I live in Hollister and have seen the car, its beautiful. As far as a painter I can suggest the guy that painted my car he's in Salinas about 30 miles away has a shop does killer work, let me know if you want his info.

    I wouldn't touch a damn thing. Chips are like battle scars, big deal, they are made to drive. I hope he doesn't kill the overall killer vibe of the car.
     
  17. Yup, another dipshit, too bad he does not realize he has one of the coolest Buicks EVER BUILT!

    I have a feeling the Ghost flames will be least of the attrocities if he wants to "Jesse James" the wheels.

    True and that would require just about as much class....

    Bad taste is bad taste... We regularly give guys shit for building crappy cars... This is no different... Who cares if he baught it. 'Jesse James-ing' it makes him an ass-hat...

    I guess he never saw Jesse's merc.
