I just got these pictures sent to me. The painter got the car on Monday and here's where it's at today (Wednesday).
It's not cut back yet but, that sure is a pretty color. Once the white interior is in there....... This is going to be SWEET!

That's a great color... but did you take the pictures with a Minecraft camera? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Yeah, they are pretty bad. The painter sent them over via a text but, I'm still pretty stoked about it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Looks great! I think I know that shop. Did they used to be in Escondido and moved to Valley Center around 2003? If so, they painted my Karmann Ghia. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Yes, we spent weeks prep'ing it for paint. It was basically rolled in, the painter masked it up and shot it.
He'll cut it back and buff it out too.

It's possible, I'm not sure thought. I know they've been around for a long time. They are just pat Metcalf, on Washington now.
