Nice car! was just wondering, how many guys did they have working on your car on average? Shawn

Greg have you picked out the exact color for the interior yet? I'd love to see what you picked. It looks sweet.

JUST HOLY WOW!! LOVE THAT!! I'm really a fan of the whole "rat rod" movement…. I don't "fit" that movement -- Gwen isn't going to wear 50's clothes -- and I'm not mid 20's anymore -- but I absolutely LOVE what the creativity is on these cars!

I know I'm late to the paint party, but that painter can spray. Looks great and I like the color... getting the Vibe now. I can't wait to see the finish product.

Thanks buddy. The VIBE as you put it -- is just a nice simple traditional looking hot rod -- but one that exudes "Quality" from a distance and up close… and there won't be any "oh wow's" as far as details go. It's simple and sweet and will get LOTS and LOTS of miles put on it.

Per month there's usually 4 or 5 names listed as billable hours… whether they're working on it at the same time or separately -- sorry -- I just have no idea. I doubt very much that there's many people working all at the same time on it. It's not a rush project like my last one was -- and the deadline set is easily doable.

The AVERAGE hot rod produced at this shop is about 1500 billable hours is what I think I was told one time. Made sense to me -- but of course that's nothing but an "average". I think mine will be close to that average.

Yes I have picked the exact color…. and the actual leather. But I don't have any photos of it or samples either. So here's a "kinda sorta like this pic"

Take this color -- mat it out… ditch the wheels for steelies and dog dish… Give the wheels some color… Maybe cut the lid just a little…. Faded brushed out signage -- Stella in the passenger side … Mountain bike in the back

I have a way kool mountain bike! Just because I'm old - and fat - and weak - and infirm - and demented - doesn't mean I can't go trail riding!! I just don't go very far very fast or for very long - if I do…. I have to ride into town to get a candy bar - and then sometimes I forget where I went and why.
