Re: Paint Guns/Ollie's Ramblings

[Joey <jake4@xxxxxxxxxx>]

You guys that do your own paint jobs really impress me, someday I am going 
to take a paint class and do my own. I paid 8K for the body and paint work 
on my 65 Dodge from a "restoration" shop here in Indiana and it was a total 
easte of money, I could go on for hours about it but no sense in boring you 
guys more than I already do. The moral of the story is to get a good job, do 
it yourself, no one cares about your car as much as you do. By the way 
Ollie, I haven't forgotten about you on the N.O.S. parts we talked about a 
month or so ago, I am waiting on my friend to come through.
