What happens with boredom

This is what happens when I get bored. It was my first try with some rattle cans I had lying around. It's a copper, to charcoal to silver to white base with translucent blue on top with red pinstripe tape. No stencil just pulling tape right off the top. Oh the patina fender was done with buckles, workshirts and blue jeans. Takes a while but hey it's better than paying for it.

Talking Re: What happens with boredom

Thanks everyone. Last years boredom was pull the 283, slap in the 350 and M21 all on Thanksgiving weekend. Started Thursday morning and ended Saturday morning. Running and all! I felt awesome. Did it all alone also. Everyone was too busy to help. So now my truck is never lent out for moving!

Re: What happens with boredom

I'm getting bored again! I think I'll take my bumper off real soon and put all new shiny work (bezels, grille and 2 working headlights!) in the front. It's sitting in the garage colllecting dust, so I might as well show it off! I'll post updated pics soon.
