Default Step one in my Corvette project complete!!!!

We sold our truck and just bought Momma a new Honda Accord today. Even got her the loaded V6 EX and added tint, rear spoiler and splash guards!! :cool:

I have completed step one, make Momma happy :D :D Even after spending all those $$$, she still thinks I need to get the air compressor, paint gun and filter system. So step one is complete! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Also, our baby boy turned one today. . . big party for him tomorrow!

Now that the baby is one, it's time to start on another one, right? :lol: If you get that spray rig your gonna have to come over and practice on my car first, just so you know how to do it. Did you get your A/C working? After this week who's thinking about A/C anyway. Take care.

Mr. Gearhead,
Its the original color but not the original paint. I didn't really like it too much when I bought it but it has grown on me and is now my favorite color and I get so many compliments on it it will always stay WBY
Thanks
John
