Time for an update..... the car is moving along... I just never get around to posting pix etc...

So.... after my original paint plan fell through, I searched long and hard in CA for someone to paint my car....someone I could trust...and someone I can afford. In CA the average shop rate is hovering around $75/hr, so add materials and there was basically no way I was going to get above average work for under $30k

So after talking to a lot of shops, I decided to haul my car all the way to Mortensens Customs in Coer d'Alene ID....yes Idaho.... the same shop that painted Bob Braga's car...... It made me real nervous to have the car that far away from home, but even with the hassle of travel and the extra cost to get the car back and forth, the "bang for the buck" factor just made it the right choice....so off we went on a road trip...

Ok...so the project has taken alittle longer than expected....so?...my kid has grown just a tad over that period...so?
