When I was a kid, I used to paint model cars. You could say that's the bug that bit me a long time ago. Well, I worked my way up to the big time and made a profession out of painting big grown up cars. I suppose with the next couple pictures, it would seem that I'm going back to my old ways......  103

BTW, thanks for the Wal-Mart referal Dale......  023

That looks good John. I'll post pics of our Hampton Wal Mart car Monday when we finish it. For those that don't know, they are for the Mini (mot our kinda MINI) Grand Prix cars for the CHKD charity race they have at the Hampton convention center. Ours is looking nice, but that one really "pops"!

For those of you who may not know it (Dale, Steve, you can skip this part), I have recently completed BIMINI a.k.a. Howard Collins 68 Austin Cooper S. I wont go into great detail here at the moment.

I'll leave that to the owner. He has at least a million pictures I sent to him thru out the process, and I believe he can make a much better post covering the makeover of his Classic Cooper. It's a sweet little car, no doubt. Howard has picked it up, and will be starting the rebuilding as early as today.
