I do things... Group: Members Posts: 7,809 Joined: 2-December 03 From: Napa, Ca Member No.: 1,413 Region Association: Northern California |
Tomorrow it all starts.
Gonna break it all down and start the body work. I hope to have it DONE by next Friday. Brandon at Altissimo Restoration (707-253-paint) will be doing the bulk of the work. I get to do the disassembly/reassembly, welding, rear flare work, sanding, some sanding and more sanding. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) Car will be factory color light ivory with bright metalic red rally stripes and the 7"steel wheels to match stripes. I'll be filling the side marker and antenna holes. Rear ducktail spoiler will go from black to white and the targa top will be smooth painted with the stripes over the top of both. Any advice?

$3050 out the door, all inclusive. i take it apart. antenna and lower sail panel trim delete, color match a smooth top that i have. L96D(silver metalic) 2-stage. i thought about a road trip via los poncho's, fly home-fly down, drive back. roughly the same ammount after everything is totaled up and no worries about a long drive home with the new paint. i've never had a qoute under $5500 local, and that's with me taking it apart. it's nice when you can look at the painters work first hand. i don't care about a photo album full of pictures. he'll assure me of a completion date.
