it costs $75 locally and is worth the cost just for the use of the equipment and the spray booth. alot of guys take it over and over. Kim, tell Chas I said he's not supposed to be riding the lift like an amusement park ride
 
I used the kids at the local Career Academy to paint my '79 Pageant Blue about 7 years ago...completely happy with their results & all it cost me was the materials...you might want to check with them also
 
Tony,

I have printed out JDW's bodywork bible, and even printed the pictures full size in color, to guide my inexperienced hand.
I have looked at the local CC (Ft. Worth) at the classes they offer, and that is also an option I am thinking off.
Right now, its 103 degrees out, and my poor car is not allowed space in my 2&1/2 car garage, so the body and paint will wait until the fall and room inside

Ed...a friend of mine who's a member of the Sam's club gave me a tent I'm using to cover my '60 MkIII Farina Magnette....plastic frame with white covering..zippered front...said it cost him about $200...lots of room for working inside!
 
David, my man...WELCOME...next time you're in my neighborhood stop by to see the addition - windows are in....now, join in the fun!

So, this is where you guys went to. I went away on business for a while and discovered you gone from the other list when I got back.

See you later.

PS. Going to the SIRBrit show next month?
 
hey Jon, how's Vincennes? I won't be at the show due to a commitment with my daughter's marching band, but make sure you come anyway

Well, I have been in Virginia and Washington DC and Kentucky on business and have not been around much. I am simply glad to be home.

Too bad you can't make it to the show. I am going to be there if my kids stay healthy. Catch you later.

Howdy Tony.
Thanks again for the top. Hoping to get in installed before the SIRBrit show. If not there is always the hardtop.

Anyway, I will be talking to you later.
Adios!
 
Jon.... after all my problems with top suppliers, yours is probably the last new top I'll sell...I've notified Crown I won't be offering their product any longer...&, my cost for Robbin tops, doesn't leave me much room for a profit!
