Man, Roly, unreal!

Alot of you guys are doing some unbelievable work! Well, only unbelievable if you arean't getting $100+ plus the body for each one!!!



I have posted these before, but not sure if I posted them here. This is about where I like it so I can do 10-15 a week after work at night and on the weekends. You guys must have A TON of TIME in each one?!

Maybe some day you guys can paint mine so I might be able to work on my stuff and race, LOL.

10-15 a week? Jim how do you do it. If I crank 5-8 in a week I'm amazed I leave for work at 1(pm) and get back home at 12:30(am) so I've got very little time. I've had to do weekend the past 2 weeks and the girlfreind was not happy

A replica of a body I saw at the track.
'some' may recognize it.
The colors looked good together so I tried them out.

dang jim, i think i meant to tell you this when i saw these somewhere else but these are super nice. the shadows, and the drips are very very nice. the little white accent on the drips sets them off, great work sir

Downtown, like this one?



Rdub, thanks, i'm trying, but I'm not always as crazy as Roly...refer back to the part about his lady, LOL. I managed to stay married for 20 years so far, although I know some racers way more worried about getting a body painted, then my marriage, haha.

Roly, I work on them almost every night for at least a few hours, sometimes until 12-1 am, when it's crazy....then on saturday if I don't have family plans and on sunday if there is no state race to attend. On my off nights I only do about an hours work because I hate letting them sit with no progress even when I don't feel up to it.

Sometimes on a saturday from 9 am to about 11 pm I have done 10-12 in one day if they were already coated with mask and ready to go into the paint booth. I'll post a pic of my work bench with a decent size batch.



...Jim
