Sequoyah · 07-10-2006, 12:31 PM

Looks really nice! What color is that?

rambler · 07-10-2006, 12:46 PM

looks sharp,, did you do it yourself, looks too good to be a "driveway" paint job

Greubin · 07-10-2006, 12:56 PM

Hmmm, that looks like PPG Copperhead

, looks beautiful!!

**Palf70Step** · 07-10-2006, 01:24 PM

Very nice!!!

Sweet72 · 07-10-2006, 01:30 PM

Really nice paint job! You painted that yourself? We need all the details when you get time.

bigfredtn · 07-10-2006, 01:50 PM

Nice paint job. Is it cooperhead paint job?

Igotachevyor2 · 07-10-2006, 01:56 PM

Gerwin · 07-10-2006, 02:24 PM

wow....

speechless.... really nice

**SactoJim** · 07-10-2006, 02:36 PM

Looks great!...and yeah, we need more details on color and paint process. I've come up with some pretty clean jobs in the garage just by good preparation.

72gord · 07-10-2006, 03:45 PM

Love the paint job...but I think you will need a bigger gas tank if you plan on going far... j/k

**Yukon Jack** · 07-10-2006, 03:59 PM

Very nice color!

cflvulcan · 07-10-2006, 04:41 PM

now that im at work and have some free time, i can answer some questions.

thanks for all the compliments! i appreciate it!

hhahaha, no i did not paint it in my driveway. my dad runs the shop part of this body shop down the street from my house. so i use the spraybooth on nights and weekends when i do work for myself or other people.

the color isnt ppg copperhead. its actually a one-off color from rm finishes. i talked with our rep about making a color like this nissan orange that i liked. but we came up with a similar color but brighter and much more yellow and gold pearl. so they sponsered me and made me the color. we call it "orgasm orange" haha.

yeah, like the anti-freeze bottle substituted for a gas tank?? im a little tight with money until i sell my bike thats in the last pic. so i cant afford a new blazer gas tank at the moment. i used that bottle cause the truck isnt going anywhere far for a while.

*rage'nrat638* · 07-10-2006, 06:08 PM

sweet...i am likey

good luck selling the bike...hope it goes quick...so you can get your tank, and parts..you will get much more joy and looks out of the truck i am sure.
your pal mark

Do you have that bike on eBay? I was looking for bikes on eBay last night and I could have sworn I seen that one on there.

Love the color choice!

cflvulcan · 07-11-2006, 03:48 PM
