    Paint is lined up: to da Bat in July!

    I have been in contact with Jeff Kleiner for a while now regarding bodywork and paint, though delays on my engine derailed my timeline. As I'm now running, I spoke with him the other day, and, no surprise, there is a nice long line ahead of me. We spoke a bit, and he suggested contacting the other Jeff (Miller) and seeing where he was at with things. I enjoyed talking with the famous Bat, and it turns out he is wrapping up a few and needing some in line, so I was able to get on his short list! Looking at my schedule, mid July is now inked in for a haul from Texas to California with my wife (kids at the grandparents).

    I know Miller does outstanding b/w and paint as well, and I've decided on my color combination: Ford Magnetic Metallic Grey with BMW Titan Silver traditional stripes.

    Now to finish up the footbox blower ducts, insulation and carpet, and a few other odds and ends over the next few weeks. Can't wait!

    After the round robin calls among the three of us on Wednesday Batty Jeff let me know that you guys had struck a deal. Good news for all of us---you get done sooner, lightens my load and makes sure the ol' window licker keeps busy and out of the bars & casinos

    Win, win, win!
