Re: Rattle Can Kustom!..A 12 week build..Can we do it..

Thanks guys.
He's a great kid.
He knows more about mechanical stuff than most kids his age. He's been working with me on cars/trucks since he was 8.
There's always kids here having him build them custom speaker boxes for their cars and wiring in stereo equipment.
I know nothing about amps, crossovers, and all that stereo crap. But he does and sets up systems for kids all the time.

As for him being big kid. He's 6' and 210...the football coaches beg for him to play but he's too busy chasing girls.
I can't keep track of the girls thru here...seems a different one weekly. My wife always said she'd have to worry about him way more than our 19yr old daughter...haha

As for the paint....Ya'll are gonna laugh. I got a weird thing for the light blue colored trucks. So I found this paint at a local Ollie's Bargin Outlet.
Its striping paint used to put lines on the ground...!
It was 1.99 a can on clearence. And its a big can. We used 8 or 9 cans to paint whole truck. So under 20 bucks. Its the perfect color to me.
It has a primer feel to it. So we'll see how it wears.
I want a weathered look so maybe that'll play into it.

So laugh away at our paint choice.....
