yes the first time it was painted yes. after i cuit i heard he wanted the stripes burried so he reshot it. everyone there thought it looked good and i would have just sanded it back down and recleared it but who knows. im am an asshole to him anyway so i dont care.

the 57's color was very nice. dont know if any of you guys seen it at autorama last year but the color went from hugger orange to lime green in certain lights. very nice car and color. the busa was done in standard gm black and then had three coats of red kandy sprayed over that to give the black a slight burgundy color in sunlight. the 929 was alot of work and was done in blue metallic base a tricoat red and white pearl and all grafix were buried under the clear coat.

i think that may be because we took what we do seriously. most of the people took that class as a blow off class but i actually wanted to learn about the trade. yeah i do have more stuff on an old computer but it crashed and i lost alot of it. i had done pictures of the american flag 929 and a couple of helmets that i did. another one was flamed and one done like the michigan wolverines helmet. alot of my other bikes that were done were also lost in the crash. sucks but i am trying to rebuild my portfolio now. no big deal.

well my first year there i had frank antonucci as my autobody teacher and then he got into a car accident then i had pat kelly as my senior year teacher. the first year class was great. we learned alot. second year was messed up because mid way through frank had his accident and was out for most of the year. didnt really do a whole lot that year. first part of the year we would sit and build model cars to get used to working with our hands then we would have a crash course in using the tools of the trade and then get started on the autorama cars and what not. it was cool and i had long hours my 11th grade year working on the 69 dz302 camaro and the convert 57 chevy. i dont know anything about the new teacher so i cant help you at all sorry.

you happen to do repairs & repaint on a OEM airdam(urethane I think?)?

badassxtreme99
12-16-2007, 01:24 AM
yeah what do you have ?????? and how bad is it. sometimes it is just not worth it to repair some damaged parts.

I'll take pics, but it is mainly scraped good, then it folded slightly in 1 spot(pretty much back where it is supposed to be) and 1 spot has a small hole poked in it, but the material there has also pretty much gone back in place

If i get it up to work today, I'll let to snow melt and take pics



and its off a 04 Blazer Xtreme, and a new one is $500 list, so it takes quite a bit to make it worth buying a new one

yeah the only hope unless you have a bunch of money is to start off small with side jobs here and there and get your name out there. im sure eventually i will need some work, if not just a buffing job on the avy :) good luck man!

eh i think i could handle any of that :lol:. starting out in my garage i think is gonna be the best way to start and will probably be the way i will do it and see where it goes from there not to mention i like my new job. everyone there is real nice and they have already been talking to me and a friend of mine about one of us becoming the afternoon shift leader but nothing set in stone.

It looks like you do some nice work!

I have a '96 Firebird (bright red) that has a small ding in hood that needs to be fixed and the front fascia is loaded with rock chips. Is this something that you could fix?
