    Twins or seeing double?

    Today I finished a roadster for a friend. Unique color combo. He liked my color and wanted his exactly the same. When we go to shows we will park next to each other and act like we don’t know each other. Finishing a MK3 now. daBat Miller has the body now and no it will not be Copper.

    Double trouble!

    Funny, DaBat did mine and another forum member’s and we shipped them down together from WA and always call them the twins. Except they aren’t identical...mines blacked out/naughty like those and Jim’s is the flashy twin.

    Chris, love the blacked out look. I have a blue/silver stripes body coming on a roadster I’m selling. My next “mine” roadster I was thinking satin black/gloss black stripes. All chrome powder coated black. Batmobile.

    I really like that black. I originally our plan was to go with a light silver, but now that I am having Kleiner do the paint, black just looks too damn good!

    Yes, I can post a few more photos. Not my intent to jack someone else’s thread, so I’ll start a different one. And as Chris points out above, I never did a graduation post (is the car ever really done?) so maybe I should work on that...
