Re: Lurker OrrieG Progress Pics

. I went to a couple of shops last week to see what they would charge to shot the final BC-CC, both said it wasn't that simple and that I should just quit doing the body work since they usually ended up redoing it all anyway. Really pissed me off and now that I have a feel for how the new paints go down
Anyway enjoy the "hobbists" , as they put it, work.[

You must have taken your truck to the same body shop I did!!
I am not ready to take on a paint lesson but there must be someone that has the same values as me when it comes to a finished project.
Keep track of your hours and pay yourself $50.00 hr. see how close you come to the 5500.00 est.
You will have much more satisfaction in your complete job than just writing the check.
Keep up the good work, the end is in sight!!!
