As long as it still runs no worries.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Are you the known expert in your area? Full time, part time, only when you feel like it? Will you have to find paint to match?

I have been at my craft since 1976 in my area.

I do not advertise

I write the estimate ..I do the work.

Word of mouth is my advertising.

I see if the car has single stage paint or Base / clear...then get the paint mixed from the paint code

If no paint code..I have access to a color camera...that will develope a color.

I make spray out cards and use my Sunlight to match colors.

There's a lot of (I's ) in there...cuz I work alone.

So yeah...expert sounds good

Nice color combo ! Probably my 2nd favorite year.

I favor the 58 over all the rest !
