guy doing my MJ is so anal its annoying...
the truck will have better paint than it did when it rolled off the factory line..
stopped by today for another one of the consultations he requests...  I think he just wants reassurance hes doing a good job and im going t pay him.  ;D







I never wanted a red car.. always thought they were tacky and common...
I now have 4 very not common cars and they are all red.. :o

I think this might be the last big project he does...
He's all about little things he can turn quickly.

The guys at the Canandaigua airport do side jobs I hear
