Every side of every piece of body is being painted.  The car will be just a rolling chassis, no engine, stripped interior.  Im going to make sure it will be impossible to tell it was ever a different color.

I have to hide my Gobi past.

  Jason, black is a rather inconvenient color to maintain speaking from personal experience. The blue is nice, as is the green, though the green is rather "trendy" be Blue. and be sure to spend the coconuts for "open door" painting, remove all the glass, first class! you want none of the old color to ever show.

    How people decided on paint back before photoshop is beyond me.
