Well, most of you saw my new paint pics. Upon further checking tonight there are some issues in the paint and without writing a book it's going to need to be stripped and re-painted. I will paint it this time, I've learned my lesson!
Thanks John, I appreciate it. I was disappointed that I delegated this part of the build anyway, now I get the chance to make it right! But it seemed like the smart move at the time, being as it was in the 30's temp-wise and he had a heated paint booth versus my un-heated shop!
That sucks Jody. How much time is this gonna set you back? Maybe you should run the Lightning on Power Tour. You could call yourself Charlie's support vehicle.
I'm working on my 3rd engine plan these days. I've been ripped off on 3 different occasions trying to get my engine together.
Back to paint: mine is finally going in for paint in a couple weeks, so your troubles combined with my previous bad engine luck has me a bit nervous. But I'm hopeful for the best, and I've talked with them many times. So it should go ok.
Does this put a big damper on your power tour plans?
That's too bad to here. Perfectionism sucks don't it. I might have been driving my car years ago if it wasn't for my disease. Is there a short story version?
Mike
