Nice work Larry! Makes me excited to see another beautiful 02 so close by!

p.s. Who did your body work and paint? You or a shop?

I did most of the prep, stipping the car down to the shell and wheels and for final bodywork and paint I used Rob Porter in Battle Ground, WA. His company's name is Accurate Auto Body, but as far as I know he doesn't advertise but works soley by word of mouth. He wasn't cheep, but very through. If you are looking for someone and want to contact him email me at larryb@fcpi.com and I will get you his contact information.

Also, if you wanted to see his work before committing, I can show you mine, or refer you to other cars...mosty Corvettes...this was his first 02 paint job but it looks factory in color match, and better than factory in gloss and depth.

Looks great. When can I drop my car by your house? What's your turn around time? ;)

I'll give you a shout when I'm closer to that stage of things. For now, I need to get inertia-reel seat belts and a new center console.

Very funny, when I said I did the pre myself, I didn't say I'd want to do it again, or I may end up a divorced man...

It took me a little over 5 months to get her this far and I'd bet that's more time than you'd feel is acceptible.

Hehe. Nice work, nonetheless.
