Wow! real nice- we all need a buddy from Brazil to come over and inspire us.

Now for the toughest decision of all- What are you going to drive?

saw the light blue one in person yesterday, nice doesn't cover it this car is incredible and will be one to watch when its done. remember this is a maaco paint job and it looks great!

I also saw one other project these guys are working on, a super that was rusted out bad. to see it now you would never know its the same car. I think we have a couple of guys who are first class VW restoreres here, who should open a shop and soon!

Anth. I know we haven't seen each other for awhile but Bob might just have the answer you are looking for. About a job?

Sorry you missed out on the picture and Action News but you know I can do "magic" with that. And I hope you Dad is ok.

Shawn, Anth. and I took my bus down to Maaco in Turnersville and Skip gave me a price of $1,600   BUT I wanted a special two tone paint job, that included all the body work etc.he will even give you all  the info. on touch colors just in case.
I'm sure you can work out a price with him
.
This is not your Macco of old . But only in Turnersville.

Hope this helps?

I was just curious Bud. I intend to shoot it myself.
But if I choose to have it done, I'll have our very own
Franks Auto Body do it. ;-)
