Doesn't surprise me Greg. Alot of the "old school" guys live and die by bondo. That was what the grew up on. I still know of a few "old school" body shops in the hood that will bondo the ish out of your car if you don't know any better. They paint all of the young boys dunks and crap cars who don't want to spend the real money on body work. Sad part about these shops are, they are making a buttload of money doing it and the youngsters ride around thinking they got a candy or a pearl paint job that is top notch. But, you see them riding down the road and the body work is just was wavy as can be from all of the bondo and poor body work. As long as it shines with plenty of clearcoat they are happy.

Yea...... your right about that! They could a ford look like a Chevy by the time they were done Maybe Boyd wasn't a good example to use but you know what I mean. I'll try again......... It's crazy to see the level of talent that has risen and hows these car have gotten to concept car type quality. How bout that, is that a better description?

Quick update.. Kinda pumped up about this !! Troy wants to bring the Camaro out to the GOOD GUYS INDY show in September. Now that he has the wheels mounted the fender streatch can begin. So if all goes well the car should be at Indy in the raw.
