RE: Carlisle pics, ooops

[Jeff Adams <ledman_70@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Several times people have come up to me at cruise-ins and on the street 
and said my car looks perfect the way it is (nasty old green paint and 
caved in pass. door) and not to change a thing, but I tell them I'm 
tried of it looking like an escapee from a junk yard and I want new 
paint and shiny new chrome. That rat rod look is ok for some cars, but 
after 9 years I want NEW STUFF!! I will paint it myself, so if it gets 
scratched once it's painted, I'll just fix it (after I get done 
crying!).
