I just picked up one of our vettes from the paint shop. Painted it the same color, but it looks like I should have stuck to my guns and went with the stripes!! Looks great!

Thanks for all the approvals. You know it's up to the owner if he/she likes something on his/her car, but it's nice to know that what they did gets the from the crowd.

VERY

My 86 is brite red (81U) and eventually neeeds repainted. I know that I should keep her stock but this is one heck of a tight paint job. There is nothing like new paint to turn your baby into a neck breaker (a car that will make you turn your head so quick it snaps off at the neck)

Well worth the effort and $$. Congrats and good luck at the shows when you take her.
