Ralph --- I was kidding of course on the rotisserie -- but I still can't even imagine the amount of work you've done laying on your back. You are da man!

I agree with the "single use" of the rotisseries -- and many guys buy one - use it and then sell it for close to the cost (they don't wear out!) == so the actual cost is pretty low - and the amount of work you can get done "comfortably" is well worth the small cost ($100 maybe? when all said and done). Just my "idea".

You've done some killer stuff buddy -- keep us posted!! And welcome aboard - this is the best car website period! Lots of really really good folks here!

Man you are an inspiration. Your paint jobs on the 69 and 65 look very good. You inspire me to possibly paint my own project. Keep up the good work.

I used to think that painting belonged to the gods but you can do it. Its time consuming and it takes patiens. Thats how i learned though. Trial and error and i read up on books and made friends and some even showed me how to do things. I did one fender and then a door and so on. If you can paint with a can you can learn with a gun. again practices on something that can be re-done if you mess up.When i would primer my projects i was simulating i was painting my car.

Thumbs up lookin good

If you dont mind do you remember where it was that you got that kit to raise the body off the frame? All three of you builds are friggin nice by the way. Tha chevelle would look sick on air ride, just a little high for my taste. The camaro is looking good.

I bougth the kit on ebay. Look up rotisserie and it should come up.I agree with you on the chevelle it was a little to high. The car was just a roller without interior so it really didnt weigh anything. I wanted to add all those little goodies and then adjust the ride higth but i sold the car before i got to that point.
