    Only 12 hrs. LOL. I kept saying, "Ron, you can quit any time." Ron: "No man, I'm good, it's still early. What else you wanna stripe?" He is totally amazing!


    LOL. I have to keep ahead of all the copy cats wantin' in on my deal. Now, they have to build a hot rod office AND get it striped. LOL Seriously, though, this was a deal that just kinda materialized out of the blue and bang, here's Ron striping away. I look at it now and wonder why I was such a dummy and didn't think of it a year ago when we moved in....palm smacks forehead....

    I couldn't be more proud of you, Michelle, and your Awesome dad for having the drive and desire to see a life long dream materialize. This is the result of literally years of planning, and hundereds of hours of plain ol' fashioned sweat. Congratulations!!! Now we gotta jerk that 6 out of the 49 and put it on your lawnmower where it belongs! :rolleyes:

    LOL. Of course, that would require me to get out in the shop and get something done. Maybe I should get the engine you built me 10 years ago of the stand and into the wagon it belongs first....naaaaah, why rush anything? LOL

    Thanks for the congrats. Wish you were closer and coulda helped be part of the fun! :D

    Just because I'm 1000 miles away, doesn't mean I didn't enjoy the journey with you from here. We do the best we can with what we got!! Now, about that six..........;)

    That's the crowning touch on your awesome office!
    I'm used to seeing pin stripers set a price for striping a car not working by the hour-or day. And here, you have him on the clock from dawn to dusk striping anything that didn't move! Wonder if an all day pinstripe contract is unpresedented?

    from tulsa, ok

    Just had Ron finish up my third vehicle. He was cheap, a diet Pepsi and a couple of tacos. I think his idol was "KING DAVE" Anderson. I'm lucky enough to have had both of them stripe for me. Can't wait for the rpu to be ready for some lines. Love the work Ron!
