    Absolutely beautiful execution. I'm really glad to see that all the late nights and hard work paid off in order to get it to the show! A prost to everyone involved.

    WOW! I can't wait to see it in the flesh. Isn't it strange that pictures don't do a car like this justice and yet pictures can make a total piece of shit look ok? Great car. Congratulations to all.

    I guess it's good you didn't clean the engine compartment up 'cause she looks like she is leaking.
    Very nice though..........looks even better under good lights.
     
  15. Beautiful. Hats off to the Gambino crew and to you KIRK!.

    Will the car be making it's way to the east coast this summer?

    After following along with all the in-progress updates the last few months, I knew the paint job was going to be real nice, BUT I HAD NO IDEA just how OUTRAGEOUSLY NICE it was until I saw it in-person on Saturday.

    The quality of that paint is just so perfect and SO UNBELIEVABLY BEAUTIFUL in real life.
    I've never seen/heard so many people going nuts over a paint job before.

    Really....top-shelf quality!

    Gambino & the boys should now be considered master painters
    (which is a big step up from master baters) ha ha

    Without a doubt, one of the most beautiful Kustoms of all time. Now if you could just do something about those "blank" taillights....... *grin*

    Well done Kirk & Gambino Customs! You should all be proud! Two questions, now what do I do without updates every 20 minutes?:D
    And will we see this car at Puyallup?

    The only reason I even went to the show on satuday was to see the Starliner. Granted, I was planning on picking up some parts at the swap, normally I wouldn't even venture into the show area. I saw Kirk doing some judging over by the swap area and asked "hey Kirk, where's your Starliner", after pointing me in the right direction I went over to check it out.

    Man, my jaw hit the floor! Pictures do not do this car justice. You need to check it out in person if you get a chance (do it soon, cause I'm sure it'll start picking up nicks and scratches with all the driving it's gonna be getting) Thanks for keeping us all in the loop with the progress of this build.
