Gang,
Since Demick was too loaded down with goodies to bring his Pcar to Vegas, let 
me tell those who haven't seen it that  this is one fine looking gettup. So 
fine, in fact, that a local Countach owner begged Demick to paint his Lambo 
in the driveway, too!!! Too cool, Jim. Jeff Garvin #2470

 You are learning about how much a person can save by doing things 
themselves. 
  I painted my Pantera myself several years back. Everything including paint 
 (Guards Red Basecoat/clearcoat by Dupont), masking tape, sand paper, 
 thinners, cleaners, tack rags, new air compressor filters and even a new 
 paint gun (set me back a whopping $32) was total of $450!  I even painted it 
 outside in my driveway.  I guarantee that you would never guess the price of 
 the paint job on the car.
 
 No, I don't cringe when I get a rock chip in the car :o)
