The guys have been busy as hell so far this week. The car got blocked out and received another coat of primer,


So I got news today that Recaro won't be shipping out our seats until, 9/1 which kinda sucks since I ordered them back in mid/late June. Anyone have any ideas on how to finish up the cage without the seats, so it can get powdercoated. The car is supposed to go off for its interior in September, and I doubt anyone would want to do any welding on it with its finished interior. Would a removable clamp type crossbar work? Steve, don't you have one in Penny now?
You ask me for a favor after that last post??? :rofl:

J/K.. Penny is off in Illinois right now or you could borrow them. Dimensions for the seats is on the Recaro website if that helps.

Why are you putting purple stripes on your car???


After all.. you KNOW it would look better with blue as an accent color..

Steve, the spray out color would get really lost as a stripe on that dark grey, which means we're not talking purple stripes these days, oh no, we're talking a purple car:unibrow:

If the color weren't called Amethyst Red, I'd have to admit that Brad was right, and its purple

It's called "subtle"... I just think back to that picture of Hennessy ZR1 Camaro done in the Cyber grey and blue accent.. it just looked killer.

Whatever you choose it will look killer.. it's just fun to tease you about the "purple" paint. ;)

They have a wall that small at the shop???

Matt@BOS 08-27-2009 09:45 PM
Hey, in Brad's defense the wall is more about quality than quantity. After all, it has the the thank you note from Jon Lindstrom, yes the only one known to be in existence.

I still do like the grey and blue though, and admit it looked the best of the bunch, especially with the little bit of blue in the alloy grey. I love subtle, and this purple (okay I said it) is still pretty subtle.

This was the photo that made me change my mind about purple.

I think I'll be able to live with the jokes, if not I can help keep Best of Show in business by having it repainted
