Mayhem is getting painted. That is all. Sometimes family is a good thing.

yep. She'll have some 'surprises' along with the paint. My concept will (mostly) be becoming a reality, a few small things I won't be doing yet. The few people that have seen the new look have all approved. This year exterior, next year interior - upholstery, carpet, repainting some interior pieces. THen from then onwards, its performance time.

My uncle's brother is doing it all, basically just charging me cost. Exterior, door jambs, trunk area, body work, and some other little things here and there for $1800. Last quote I had was $1200-$1500 just paint, no jambs, no body work and no little extras. This is much better (for me, Mayhem, and my wallet).

yeah, the other guy doing it, there was no way it was going to happen this summer, so I was just gonna wait. But since this guy could do it now, instead of saving up a new fund, I'm just gonna use the $$$ in my savings account, and then out the money back in over the next 6 months or so. Plus with the way things are going, I hope to buying a 'new' car or 2 at the beginning of next year. (I might spend all the money on 2 cars, or some on a certain T/A I love(pay it off in about 6-8 months, spend the rest on a jeep, don't know yet)
