Here are some pics of what we got done yesterday paint today and he asked if I would like to see the color and opened the can I about wet myself  This is going to be an AWESOME COLOR!!!! Anyway everyone likes pics so here ya go more to come ..  Were getting there. Sanding before first prime coat.  Some more parts before prime  We all got a shot at shooting some primer this is both of my buddys the one on the right is the Pro he is doing a good job pointing the finger   There are alot of parts on a Interstate  but they are all primed and we are painting today will have more pics soon Stay Tuned

Never mind. I fingered it out. I was working through the company gateway and had both Firefox and IE running. Apparently not a good combo.

I love it for sure I sure hope so, after the Interstate I'm not painting anything bigger than a bicycle  . As far as the color the official name is pugly urple  , . It's starting to grow on me a little, especially around the fingers and knuckles  . I am anxious to see it all back together. Are you back home yet?
