    Well how bout I just bring her over and let you paint it? I've done it but I hate bodywork and I don't have anywhere to do it

    I may just with a two tone black on top lime green on the bottom. I liek the seminal pattern but it does look better on a kenworth

    Maverick wants me to go out with a trainer. You believe that? 13 years driving and they want to send me out with someone who is probably less qualified than I am

    I seen some great paint jobs done right in someones backyard... I don't blame you on the bodywork. Its very tedious and time consuming but it will make or break the final product. I think the layout you have would be very nice even on a POS (sorry misspelled that) ..... ummmm I meant Pete. :biggrin_25522::biggrin_25523:

    like you have room to talk looking at macks

    I know 98% of a paint job is prep. I just hate sanding. especially when it's nice and hot and you are sweating ad it sticks everywhere... oh especially the fiberglass filler too! good stuf
