soooo... which color of grey is it? Cadaver Grey?


Also, i'm assuming Tony will only kill the thread if it's 2 pages of nothing but people going "AND...." /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif


Of course, I could be wrong... on both counts... the color and the thread killing button ... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I'll skate out onto this thin ice....

I mentioned to my wife that I was kind of considering gray for my car....

She thought it'd be lovely... what with it then matching my hair and all... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif

She's not a LBC kind of person, I'm afraid.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

I can always call her Paint & Body man, John Mangles, and get an answer.

Now Janel, you really don't want me to do that, do you?!

And....I'll be in St.Louis on March 31st....so I'll probably stop by the shoppe!

After my body-man got done repairing fiberglass, he asked me what colour I wanted it....

My answer........"What da ya got in the gun now?"
