I hear ya! My dad had a 72 GTO in this color... well, not the gold flake but it was this color green. I am in the process of tracking down the current owner. I am thinking of buying it and restoring it. Its my dream car! =)

But yeah, I should be back in Cali on Monday. So, it should be all back together and ready for me to pick up.

Now I just gotta sell the motorcycle to get the other goodies for my car! =)








Keep em comin guys! Let's see some more!

3-4K is average

You can get away within the 2.5K's.
But remember, you do get what you pay for.


I paid nothing near these prices though (:
(Ahhh, I <3 SE )

Insurance huh? HAHA jk.

Well, cause I kind of work at a shop and have been doing a lot of the work myself.
But the most credit goes to my friend / boss Ross who did Dieselstation's car.

how much would a flat paint job run me?

ive been quoted 1000-6000 here in vegas.

the guy quoting 6000 is making more sense but that sounds like....alot.
