48 hrs straight here, (well i did snooze for 2 hrs yesterday).
14 pieces, 2 coats of black base, a dusting of clear with prism flake, all the clear I had to bury the flake, and for my first ever paint job......I'm so freakin pleased!!!
Yeah I know....worthless with no pics...but it's 7:20 am, and I'm going home, so I can wake up with my wife at 8 lol.
Still have a Bud to finish....and those fumes....mmmm mmm.
Pics by tomorrow....hang on to your chair!
The PowerPlant is landing!
Friday at 10:30 is the plan to roll 'er out....still have to install 3 amps, x-over, 2 screens, dvd, x-box, 2 subs, cap, a licence plate, wash, 4 6&1/2s, 4 tweets, deck, complete custom, and restored interior, some more damping, 6 black lights, 8 LEDs, the wildest window ever, a couple of strobes, flame mirrors on the headliner, (anyone know how to attach mirrored glass to a headliner?) get it running, and tweak it up.....ummm I think that's a days work. The mirror flames might have to wait til Saturday. Um ....you might have to wait til then for the pics.
Wish me luck guys!

We did the Midnite Madness show last nite....rolled it out at 10:26 with a smoke machine and a strobe going.
There was a crowd of around a hundred people, watching us slam it together for the first time.
We got it up and running, but a few last minute glitches to overcome, so no chance at all to tweak or tune.
Pics aren't the best, but it'll give you an idea.
