Thanks. I’m looking at different options to finish mine and always like to hear what others are doing

How the hell did you get those skills! And energy.

Good question!:cool2: And the answer is I’m too cheap to pay anyone to do anything so if I don’t know how to do it, I figure out how to handle it on my own! :biggthumpup: And the energy thing comes from years of procrastination until panic sets in, then hurricane Super Dave roars through and gets things done with 2x4s and toasters flying everywhere!!!:eek2: It’s how I got through college.:rolleyes2:

Cheers:beers:

All of the remaining brake stuff arrived today, but I was only able to get the rear backing plates cleaned up since I was neck deep in Flamin' Ford painting! But speaking of that, I did get some FC7 dusted on the front valance. I mixed it with some DCU2021 to create a single stage, with more reducer added, which flattened it out to match the rest of the patina of the car. Hopefully the hood comes out like this too!

Man... it's hard to not want to lay down a high gloss sheen when I'm holding that spray gun. Meh, who am I kidding. My paint jobs aren't shiney anyway!!:biggthumpup::haha:

More to come...

Cheers:beers:

Dave really enjoyed you taking a few minutes and talking with me. Just a very humble and cool dude. And after having a chance to get over to your old A12 car I have to say... You DID NOT do a good job on that car I’m afraid.. It is one of if not the best looking Mopars I have ever seen hands down. Photos just do not give that car and your talent justice. And now for the typical dumb/stupid gif or smiley.

Ha! You too, my friend. I’m glad I was able to put some faces with some names finally!!:biggthumpup:

Thanks for the compliments on my Bee. Dave, the new owner, is thoroughly enjoying it and it was nice to finally meet him in person and go over the car in depth with him.

Just back from the show and what a blast as always!!!:headbang::headbang:

Time to get Crusty running!:eek2:

Cheers:beers:

Dave, I saw you walk in the front door on Saturday, but I never saw you again. I was hoping to talk to you for a few minutes, but just couldn't find you. Maybe next year.

Rats! Would have been nice to meet you, Freddie. Welp, there’s always next year!:biggthumpup:

Cheers:beers:
Dave

You met me in '17 when you had the beater bee there, but I'm sure that you met a few hundred people that weekend. I didn't see Kelly with you this year. Did you leave here with the horses?

That’s exactly why I don’t remember. That weekend was, and still is, a blur. Met so many people it was hard for my feeble brain to keep track!:dunno:

Kelly was there, but the last few years she’s been doing the modeling thing, and this year she took a break to just enjoy the get-a-way. What’s that mean in men’s terms?:hmmm: Shopping!!:crazy: That’s why you didn’t see her. But next year she’s wanting to sign up to help the show by volunteering at check in, behind the scenes work, or maybe judge the 63-64 Corvettes since that’s pretty simple too:tongue:.

Cheers:beers:
