Still trying to lock down a painter for my car.  Have one guy that is supposed to call me but havn't heard from him yet.  Just priced out a total vinal wrap... $800 - $850 not including the fenders.   trying to decide which way to go.  Paint would be alot cheaper but then I have to buy the decals to put on.  hmmm choices, choices, choices.  Getting a bit nervous that nothings painted yet, racing season is coming fast.  Just ordered some saftey equipment yesterday from saferacer.com.  These guys were great to deal with, and cheap too.

Mike, the car looks great!!!

Joe, just do it yourself!
Compressor and gun-$300.00
Paint/Ready to spray primary colors-$40/gallon
Crazy colors like me-$80/gallon

Touching it up and making it pretty for the shows and parades and sponsor events yourself (free)...PRICELESS

Have you ever seen a wrap after a wreck? At least with paint and vinyl you can fix what you need fixed. Maybe Im biased because I have a plotter and do all my own vinyl work, so its extra cheap...
Just my .02

It was a day or so of futzing around in the shop for the shelves, then another half day hanging it all.  Now to make some doors for them.  Keep it all clean that way.

After painting the whole body white, the garage looked three times brighter.  That showed how much I need to put doors on it all and paint it all white.

Thanks,
Mike

Well I just had lunch with the guy I am going to Atlanta with.  I am getting  pretty stoked to get racing again this year.  For those of us with snow I think we should all head south and go racing there.

Your car is looking so much better Ricky Bobby.  You may want to go fast, but I DO go fast!
