I'm Thinking "Custom Painter Bailout"!
Business has slowed for most custom painters, so I will introduce legislation that will provide a "stimulus check" of $1000 to all custom car enthusiasts, that can be redeemed at the corner custom body shop. Write or call your congressman! :-)~Last edited by HOTRODPAINT; 01-08-2009 at 09:35 AM.

Thanks, Jerry. I would appreciate the "aid", but since hot rods are hard to mail "flat rate" I never get them from more than 100 miles away. :-) Helmets, Bike parts and concept drawings are about the only paint-related things that fit into a box.
I have done choppers from as far away as the other side of the country, but total shipping cost.....thanks to fuel cost increases.....has jumped from about $150 to $450!!!

I didn't mean to imply that! :-) ....but it will make it $1000 cheaper to do!

$1000 paint job in Arizona??? Thought they were only available in SoCal and South Florida.
Of course, the finish can leave a lot to be desired.Bob

why not? The porn industry is asking for 5 million..
Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

I've had a lot of BIG things happening to me lately but now I'm back to working on the car some, it feels good! The tranny mount was bad and that helped put everything back where it should be....
