It looks like Nassau Blue. I had a 66 Vette that was that color. Looks awesome when painted right. You must use a clear coat.

I'm sure everybody else will agree with me. If that's not a confidence builder I don't know what is. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Thanks Dennis, there are a lot of BoZo's rebuilding cars. I just don't have the capital to get it going. I also don't want to borrow any if it was possible in todays economy.

For me it was more of a health thing then anything else but I 'll never regret being my own boss. When I get tried I quit and go work on my truck. Oh ya did I mention I'm broke. But then who is'nt now a days. Livin day by day and loving it.

Trying to keep the dream alive. Had another person call today. He has a 72 Suburban that needs redone. I don't have the room right now. It would be nice to have 2 projects (paying) going at the same time. So when one is hung up for something I could move to the other.

I hear ya. Is it possible to work from your garage like me? That cuts way down on expenses. As far as equipment, I had a shop before, and have been collecting tools for a long time. So that wasn't a problem for me. Your doing real good the way your doing it right now. Like you said get a couple going at the same time. That's why I don't have much time to do my own.
