Yeah thats about what I figured. A buddy painted mine real cheap and now that I have been seeing more and more peoples work and what they paid I realize that I got a hook up. It looks like you did as well. Man I bet it will look badass in the sun.

I just wish I would have gone a little crazier on mine.

Appreciate the getting back to me.

Thanks
Robert

Yeah when I dropped it off in August I intended only to paint it white and fix dent's and then bag it... Then I saw a black 2002 chevy dually at SEMA that was flamed, and the rest, as they say, is history... I am glad I went ahead and dropped the coin to do the paint now, I can always bag it later...

I am hoping to roll it out of the shop today so I can snap a couple photos of it in the sun, we still have to wet sand and polish and finish putting the front back togther, put the bumpers back on, and install mirrors, door handles, and belt moldings, and redo the tailgate... oh and did I mention my body guy just got 4 new Insurance jobs in... Hope I get it done before the 13th so I can make it to the Starbirds show...

2 different guys; body work, base coat (white), clear, wet sand and so on were all done by John at Old Town Collision/Silver and Stone Customs. The Airbrush work was done at Old Town, but it was done by Juice of Graffics by Juice, who has his own shop out in Augusta (suburb of Wichita)... Confused yet ;)

Well I went over to the shop at lunch and swapped out the battery so I could pull it out side and take some pictures. Still needs to be color sanded and buffed but boy do those colors pop in the sun light!!!

Click on the picture for a larger view, my work has Photobucket firewalled so I had to use what I could to get them loaded..

I am actually painting the chrome star and the rivets green to match the flames for now. Wheels are staying untill I can afford to do all the necesary mods to put semi's and bags on it, although as much as it pains me to say I think chrome would look better.

My painter told me we should paint the wheels white, I am thinking negative on that idea though. However I do remember seeing a set of rockstars, I think the were on a wrangler unlimmitted, that had been painted and they did a pinstripe piece on each spoke but I haven't been able to find them again to look at it to see if I liked it...

I am hoping we have it back together in time... My body guy got 5 insurance jobs in monday so mine has been moved to the back burner once again, but that was the deal I made so I could get it done on the cheap.
