I know Bill will appreciate all the kind comments. He is a friend and I can tell you he has had other things going on. At the end of last year he got a new job and has been devoting a huge amount of time to it. If you can't tell by his car when he does something he does it right. I talked to him recently and I think he will be getting back in the garage soon and hopefully back on here. It's crazy how life can interrupt our fun!

Bill's a great guy, if memory serves me correct, its a 4 stage custom paint job. He drives the every living sh*t out of it, and it does everything well!!
Hey guys - long time. Thanks for the very kind words!!!!
I haven't been active for a bunch of reasons - Chad knows what's going on. All kinds of chaos in my life that has forced me to focus on some other things for a while. Lots of stress. The car is fine, however. Took it out a couple weekends ago for a couple hours.
The paint is a 3 stage we turned into a 4 stage. After body work and prime, based it black. Then the next 3 stages are all part of the PPG "Cabernet Tri Coat" setup. It's more or less a candy kind of setup, except instead of silver or gold base, it's a combination of multiple reds.
You can do the color "off the shelf". Be aware - it's friggin ridiculous expensive for materials. And it's hard to lay down, and it's hard to touch up. It fits this car, but I won't use it again. Not for a driving car.
Matt - miss getting together with you guys. You talked to Randy Bell lately?
