I'm sure they dont intend yours to be painted with a roller. They know you will settle for no less than a spray bomb job
Man this has got to be an exciting week for you. I cant wait to see it. Sounds like you got the premium job! How you gettin it home. You cant drive it with salt on the roads! Do you know if it is going to be baked dried? Cant wait for pics! by the way, whats this about a mustang taking up a vettes space?

Jerry, don't you wish you still had that one? Rod, Paul was right about the Mustang but not the space. The poor Mustang gets to sit cold and lonely outside (although covered) while my wifes dogs stay warm and dry in the garage. Don't get me started on that one!   Wits End    Wits End   Wits End   Wits End  Wits End  Wits End  Wits End  Wits End  Wits End  Wits End  Wits End  Wits End  Wits End

Well I guess you know what a good car cover is..I get one for the ol Buick out front every year or so..it needs everything so I don't have a real nice one yet..gotta love the dogs too..make sure they don't find any antifreeze!

Yeah, Rich, I have the real good ones from California Car Cover Company for both the Vette and the Stang. I'd still rather them be inside, though!

Hey Barry - The cover that I'm using (NOAH fabric from ZIP Products) is working well, but it came with a WARNING about using it on recently painted vehicles. You might want to check with the body shop about when it's OK to cover it.
