    I had bookmarked this link from Raceline Digital many moons ago for when I can finally order a kit.

    Hope this helps.

    That’s the One. Mine is custom, still have to get the numbers and roundels though.

    It's really nice when you get a guy who wants to work and earn $ instead of the old, 'bring it in in the fall and I'll have it ready for spring' line isn't it.

    CraigS,

    Yeah he has already done one coupe, and did a great job. Felt better bringing it to him.
    He's worked for 18 years out of a workshop behind his house, and has never advertised. You know the work is good when that happens!!

    Very exciting! Id love it if my painter showed that much motivation for my project. I always hesitate to push the painter on these projects. It feels like if I do you could get a less quality job in a hurry as you slip into the "just get it out of here" pile. then in 2 years all teh shrinkage and poor adhesion problems start.
