Beautiful shade of gray Greg :sieg:
Really looking forward to the finished product, very, very cool car.

I'm gonna need a bigger shop, there will be a 33 in it someday.

Did I tell you I'm bringing TWO guns to SEMA???




I wish I would have thought of GWFTW for my "name" on Instagram... that would have been hysterical.


Don't all of you have WORK to do???

I feel a cold wind blowing.... or is it just hot air. Sometimes it's hard to tell. I signed up and immediately had to go find the clearasil.


HAHAHAHAHAHAHA



It's the only way I get to see any progress on the build. If only I had a "Kenny" to take (lousy) photos for me...

No **** - Kenny really sucks at taking pictures. I have even had a few Spy's go in and take pictures. There better but it's only 12 days till Sema so I will have to wait.

ps I fell off my chair when I read the Clearasil comment. :headspin:

syborg tt 10-25-2013 09:50 AM

I almost forgot - You should feel special as you are actually getting pictures.

GregWeld 10-25-2013 04:20 PM

Now I have two zits.... I had to check Instagram again.





This busts me up --- love the comments! There's 153 louvers.... I'm glad I'm not physically present in their shop right now.

I sure hope so --- 'cause I'm thinkin' it's going to be that color sometime next week.


I always liked the Ford Washington Blue like on a '36 -- but it's just not dark enough -- and I always wanted to paint the hull on my boat "Flag Blue" and just never did.... but when I saw the Phil Remington '27 - BINGO - that was it.

So I hate to steal someone else's picture -- but this shot of a Speed '33 from THE ROADSTER SHOP <bowing down> shows what I hope is the stance on my car…. IMHO they nailed it.

And another cut and paste from my new best friend - Instagram…. and then he posts NO MORE PICS TIL IT'S DONE… he's killin me!!!

I'm so A D D -- that if I had to punch them -- some would be one way the other would be turned 1/4 and that poor trunk lid would look like Tic-tac-toe.



Thanks for the kind words James!

Getting parts in the paint booth is always a milestone!

I want to make a joke about the fact that you have an Instragram account while I do not, but really it just makes me feel like I really, truly am an old person at heart.

syborg tt 10-27-2013 02:20 PM

Holy **** that looks like my exact hair line. I just need to let it grow out a little more.

Marty, duplicate De Niro's Taxi Driver's look at SEMA, and maybe you'll get some extra room to shoot pics.

:D

Thanks Jay… I'm dying to see some color!


You won't get much info from following me on there. I'm more a follower than a followee(?). I don't know how to do much on there and I really just don't want to spend my energy trying to learn "social media". It's about all I can do here to do multi quotes.

That -- and I like the ability to interact in a conversation rather than just put out a statement if you know what I mean. My little finnies are used to a keyboard for the last half gazillion years -- I type really fast…. but the thumbs? Not so much. I swear my kids can type faster with their thumbs than I can two handed.

Come on Matt man! You're not really going to let the geriatrics on here drag you, kicking and screaming, into the 21st Century are you!

Get with it man!

Oh -- and if you need to know what or how to do something on there - just do like I do and call Rodger night or day. He's up all night with Georgia Anne anyway.

I'm afraid the surface is so slick the paint might fall off!!!

Musclerodz 10-28-2013 03:53 PM

Im sure that is wetted down to see the reflection. I saw it on Instagram, they are doing a killer job.

waynieZ 10-29-2013 12:58 PM

27 Color?
 
Greg,

Is that the base color from Phil's 27? Or is it a darker base?

Just wondering if the color comes out more after the clear or if I'm going color blind? LOL

I know you have to be crazy excited my friend! I know it will be amazing!

V/R,
Ty
