I haven't done a one day thrash on a car in a LONG time. Anybody wanna do a HAMB thrash?....Here's my thoughts....Denise wants a change on "Big Olds" and I think a one day bump and paint would be mucho fun. I know we have the talent, and one day with a gang of punks with sandpaper and bondo would be possible. We would need some materials, and that is the hard part. I have some leftovers from other jobs and I'm sure there are others that could "kick in" stuff too. Maybe someone with connections in the industry could pull in a favor or two. I've got a couple of weekends free in April and a saturday "Bondo Barbecue" is what I'm thinkin. Last time I did one, we decided that at 6p.m. "We Paint" Anybody got a shop we could invade for a day?...(that is, if Denise thinks it's an OK idea).......how about some thoughts on this?
Can I come and just stand around and criticize Seriously I think that's a great idea. If anybody deserves it it's what's her name
I'm in. As long as I don't have to work (I can get it off) or don't have to pti crew with the race team. I can raid the local body shop for left over shtuff...Pete
If it's a little later (drier) we can move things outside and use my place to do the damage. While the destruction is taking place Denise can train my wife on how to do the picture posting thing. We wouldn't want any "WIMMIN" in the way would we? I've got a good size grille and we could do the barbeque on the deck. Like I said it will have to be after Lake Burrell dries up. Frank
I can come and drink beer.... and keep her sister entertained I have a decent deal and moderate inventory on 3M stuff that I can get ya cheap!
Sounds great Frank...I guess we really need Denise to OK this....or maybe just go steal her car....paint it the way WE want, and give it back...ooohhhhh Denise....where are you????
WOW! Me and Big Olds are in for sure! This is AWESOME!! I'll pay for all materials and food and drink of course... BUT I ain't "hiding" out in anyones house while the fun is going on in the garage. I'll even pimp out my sister if it gets 35Pickup in town!

Damn!! I really wanted to see Big Olds with some metallic pearl tangerine candy with sandalwood w/pink and turquoise pinstriped flames and new diamond plate running boards. It's too bad she had to crash this post!
Been there, done that. Remember my pink Ford?? Never again! How about Copper tinted primer? My door handle holes need to be filled in, door poppers installed, (which I already bought 2 years ago), window workings installed, (which I bought 2 years ago), maybe I can even get window glass before this happens and we can instal them. I'll make a wish list and make sure I have all the bits and pieces together. and I promise to bring LOTS of Mt Dew! [ QUOTE ] This would be a great way to brake in my new shop. You guys up for a few thousand mile road trip? [/ QUOTE ] If I had an extra couple hundred dollars I'd fly your butt in for the thrash. You'd sure have fun with the Gay Michigan Bitches not to mention your talents would be put to good use.
Coolness! Can we do some Barris/Roth style body mods with the Bondo while we're at it??? (You know...shark fins, devil horns, scoops...FUN stuff!! ) Sounds like a blast!!!!
I have Apr 3 and 17 off...which are saturdays. I also can do weekdays, but I would think a saturday would probably work for more people.....Frank has plenty of air power, which we would need to pull it off in one day.... Some artwork ...scallops maybe... would be cool if we have the time. If we do basecoat with no clear, it's possible....no sense doing it unless we can end up with a killer job to show off.
do 'we' have a preffered paint scheme in mind, or, are we gonna have a HAMB-O-SHOP computer challenge.....? Cheers, Drewfus
hell, count me in too....i'm pretty handy with the welder, smooth with the bondo and icing, and i am a wet-sanding MACHINE!!!!!! let me know the dates for sure. we may have some primer-sealer left over from my ford too... hell, i'll even lay out some rattle-can pearl scallops on big olds.
dope is a notch or two below DA BOMMMMMB! At least, thats what I've been leading myself to beleive... what do I know, I'm just a white boy who grew up in suburbia!
Something along these lines is what the collective minds here put together a couple of months ago. This rendering was done by Mai Ki-Ki and it's the look I'm striving for.
Well Homies, if it's the fist Sat in APR, I will not be able to attend. Although, While I CAN run some sandpaper pretty well, I am mostly retarded in the body work dept., so you might be better off without me!
To get this done we are gonna need some speed in the bondo dept....I remember the car as needing some work, but not a huge amount. The more the merrier when it comes to people who can do bodywork. Kritz...those scallops look GREAT!!!!

Where exactly is this gonna happen? Finally something that I can join in and is somewhat close AND a weekend with nothing to do!. Chances of that happening again are slim so I'm jumpin' in on this one!!!! I can wet sand like a motherhumper...as long as the women don't mind seeing a fat man in a wet T contest! Ya see the key is to use a squirt bottle (with a little soap in the water) in the left hand, sanding block wrapped in paper in the right hand and a full sheet of paper stuck to the belly This way I can block out the flat areas and get those big round curves of big Olds done at the same time Of course we all know it's time to go home when it looks like the fat man is trying to smack a couple of kiwi in a wet paper bag against the side of the car ....and being the fat guy I can't see what the hell's going on and the last to know! Jeez I lose more friends that way
