Weld - working on another buddies car

[DBasher]

Man you're living!



Pimpin out a new rig and helping a friend wrench on such a great looking car, good times! How much of a "project" is the 57? Just little details or blow it apart and fix all the stuff from the last shop??

If we don't connect before you split, honk as you pass exit 4.

Greg, I see what you mean with that paint, that black is flawless! Very cool car, and cool story about the build to go with it. That baby blue '57 is sweet also, some great rides right there.

If you saw this paint in person... then you'd really understand. It's SEMA show winning depth and blackness and flawless. I don't even want to be in the same room! I'm a mechanical guy (a greaser) - He's a paint and upholstery guy (a waxer). My cars never get cleaned.... he never stops cleaning.


I love to poke people of course - it's just my nature... and if your car is in my possession -- there is a "cost" -- and it's going to be brutal. So I remind him (daily) that the reason it's on my lift - is because he can wax but he can't put stuff together that runs. Of course, this is far from the truth but who's tracking that! When I find something that needs to be re-done -- I ask him when it was last waxed.
