I can't even believe what a differance the new paint makes.

The car seems so much more fun now to me.

I drove up north of Calistoga today. Got stares and even whistles on my trip. The other day, "I like your car!"

The street tuners wanna race me. It's pretty funny.

New paint is HUGE. rocking nana.gif

I just go out in the garage and stand there and look at it.

Its like when I got my bike when I was a kid and it was too late at night to ride it. I brought it into the kitchen and just looked at it. screwy.gif

I too am at the whim of a friend trying to find a spare day to shoot mine. Same story...soon, soon, soon.

Hay, I did mine last year......I be a trend settin' sumbitch biggrin.gif
I figure (it's all about ME after all) youz guys thought that if that old dufus can do it, anybody can. He's still typing so's he musta not lost too many brian sells....then hired it out....buncha candy asses. I had brain sells to spare ....just like that fella that was shootin' primer without a mask.

The headache only lasted bout 2 months and I'm almost fine now.

JP - your spelling is offensive laugh.gif

Since I am barren, and without job, I shall take up a corner of an aircraft hanger this summer, and start about the plot to kill my car.

I only wish I had a motor, and transaxle rig ready for it.

I need stuff, but hey, I need stuff..

My Carrera gets paint soon, does that count? If not I'll just repaint my rocker panels on the 6.

I have 2 weeks to finish getting it ready for the soda blasting and body work! Hoping to have it reassembled by the end of summer. (finally pulled the engine/trany and the wiring harness. don't know how I'll ever get it back together!!!)
Going with 916 front and rear, steel reproduction flares, trunk lip spoiler (FG trunk?) and flared rockers. Wife has requested BLACK, but it is still up for debate. thinking about deleting all bright trim, and thinking outside the box on other details such as outside mirrors.
I'll start a blog when the time comes!

it/we miss ya too....

your car rust in half yet? wacko.gif lol2.gif
Dr Evil
Nope, its in a garage so its all good. I did find that the husband of one of my classmates does paint and body. He is gonna fix the front bumper that got jacked up on the tow over here for free. I am trying to get him to be the body guy for the local 914 guys. He doesn't have his own shop yet so it is hard. We are also working on ideas for our cars that he/we may be able to make...how do 911 style inner door panels with arm rests and handles sound? idea.gif It will probably be a while.
tdgray
Someone say fresh paint . Sniff Sniff.

Acutally done in October... put away for the winter ... soon to be put back together.

See my progress thread for the nasty details.


markb
I just went over to the body shop to check.
It's in the paint booth! There's red paint on it! mueba.gif

Another chance to show my car!

The problem with" new paint " is now the worry about " new dings , chips, and such "

Oh well, it will look great for awhile.
Gint
"this year" ????

This year? All 1.5 months of it? 2006?

Last full calendar year? 2005?

The last 12 months? I'd fit in that group. But I don't want to bore you with pics if I'm not in the "( fresh paint ) club". I guess you guys have seen them already anyway.

I feel for ya on that one, but I am a lot more relaxed since I screwed up my new paint while towing it across country dry.gif

Nothing attracts dumbasses like a freshly painted/or nicely painted car. Ask Jonnyx, Toast, JimTab, Joe Sharp, et al.
markb
IT HAS BEGUN!!! rocking nana.gif
Damn, I needed something good to happen, and this works just fine. smilie_pokal.gif
