I know Ive been making stupid posts lately .ive really been lookin forward to Billetproof but over the past 100 hours Ive finally got this longboadrd singin and for the first time in my life Im sculpting my merc the way I want it!Its talkin to me. Yeah I was hopin to go to Billetproof with my Rochelle and try to do the best piece of striping of my life on something but I cant step away from this car.Has this ever happened to anyone?LOL Ahh **** ,I know Ill be there!
I know .I really am in top striping form but id love to have a pic of my merc with the nose in prime and the grille teeth and bumper mocked in place!The alternative is Ill end up with a few hundred extra bucks in my pocket.God Im wacked.
Yeah Man, I hate it when i have my pace set and then it gets interrupted, even if it's interrupted by something great, it's hard to get back in that groove. Anyway, see Ya there.
there's been times when i've been so far in the zone. i have the garage door closed and cl***ic hip hop bumping and things are falling into place. when my wife taps me on the shoulder asking if I'm coming to bed anytime soon, it's 1am? WOW really i was in the zone.... then i get up the next day early before everyone else and i'm back at it again.
Well billetproof doesn't come around that often, I think you should go. Like you said' it would be good for biz! Sometimes I have to go to events just so I get exposed to other people. My friends think I'm a "shop hermit", all I do is work on my cars. It makes me wierd and out of touch. Then I live in the fantasy world where everyone is a HAMBer and really cool. Then I go out in public for a real culture shock!! So it's back into the shop....
So you are like a HAMB Groundhog? Only 6 weeks to Jalopy Showdown! (Ok, maybe it's 7 but that wouldn't be right!) I say block sand RIGHT up to the time to go and decide THEN. If you are in it, stay, if you need a sunlight break, off to the show. BUT think of all that sandpaper you could buy with the striping money you'd earn...
What happens at Billetproof only happens at Billetproof. That Merc ain't going anywhere. This from a guy who always says he'd rather work on his own car then look at everyone else's. 'Cept this year I'm going to Billetproof - Detroit anyway.
like Vance said the merc aint going anywhere and Billetproof only comes once a year! and this year is gonna be NUTS!!!
Yeah **** it...I just went to the shop laid a coat of mud across that 52 Desoto splash pan after I had to patch an unexpected panel in it.I 36d it and walked out the ****in door. I just took two shots of whskey and me and my beautiful puffy cheek desigmated driver are ready to split!None of this would be possible if itwasnt for my friends,Slag ,Joe the Gindo and the late great best friend of mine Tom Severino.Tom was the baddest mother****er I ever met and street raced a 32 Ford i 1993 when no one was that crazy.And thats just a fragment of what i have to say about him.Slag I miss ya.Ill se ya soon.
I have never felt a durablock singing. I actually don't enjoy it but it's a necessary evil. Maybe I need whiskey?
