Oh my gawd! I fell asleep waiting, and woke up only to realize I'm eligible for Social Security next year...

Don't you put that Voodoo Hex stink on me or my project! :confused59: It won't take that long....I hope.

Nah, only look at my crap if you wanna feel better about yourself, your car, or whatever else. :)

Broken in? Eh, who cares about that....

Now I've broken many engines... does that count? :hitaxeonthehead:

Curtis, this guy must be some bad azz body and paint guy. :peepwall:

He took a paint scrapper to the roof of my car while he was out here for SEMA. :confused18: He better be....needs to finish what he started! :lol:

Curtis, who's doing the paint and body? I just don't understand why some guys take soooo long to get these done? Not saying it's his fault but if he has the spot for your car and you have the funds it really doesn't take that long to do full paint and body!! Or is it just going to be a while before he has the slot for your car?

And yes I know ALL the factors that go into P&B work been doing it since the 80's :confused59:

^I agree with you Jeff. That engine will be a lot of fun for sure.
Nice to see some updates Curtis. :thumbsup:

Rick,

I'll chime in on this because it's the same guy doing my paint on the 55 and also did Malitude for Jody. He is a one man show and does this at his shop at his house. He works full time at a shop doing collision work by day and burns the midnight oil doing what he really loves...Hot Rods by night. Currently he is finishing a very high end complete Restoration on a 1967 Shelby. This car isn't in for just paint - but a complete restoration that will drive out of his shop. Seeing what he has gone through on this to make sure it is "Correct" by Shelby standards just validates why I like doing custom work instead. Once the Shelby is done my car and Curtis' will probably slide in together and get tag teamed. We all want our stuff done now but we knew what we signed up for. Good things come to those who wait! :thumbsup:

as long as the clients are aware of the situation all is good.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: that makes sense Brent
And yes I agree as I've done the 100 point show car resto's and they can get way to crazy with the small chalk marks :D

Very true Vince, and most times the client is NOT in the loop on what's going on.


Sounds like you guys are in good hands for sure!!

Thanks for jumping in and answering that one. Couldn't agree more that it's worth the wait.

Agreed! Clear communications are super important and we've all seen what the lack of can lead to.

You know it! Not going to lie...I'd love it if the car was being working on right now, but it's so going to be worth the wait and extra time.
