Burb has paint!!!
At last my Burb has color!! Here is the short story....I put her in the shop 2 1/2 years ago. I knew I had a long wait, so I didnt get too impatient. About a year and a half ago, my money had to be spent on "legal services". So the beautiful Anniversary Corvette Red and White Diamonds paint I picked out had to go. I told my boys at the body shop just go "white" It was more within my budget. All this time, Im believeing that its gonna be "plain ol white"... oh no. My boys said theres no way they could do a truck this awsome and just go plain. they surprised me with colors very similar to the original ones I picked, at no extra charge. I couldnt decide on where red should start and white should end, or pin striping etc... I told them... surprise me... and left it with them. Today I get these pics. TEAZER PICS. They are ready for me to bring them the glass. being its friday, I wont get to see the whole truck till next week. This is gonna drive me insane!
Had to share, some of you have been with me on this truck for the last 8-10 years....we're almost there!!!

Re: Burb has paint!!!
I dont have anymore, I havent seen it yet!! I just got these pics a few minits ago. I wont get to see her til Monday, and you can bet Im gonna have some pics for yall. My paint guys, Brett and Jim, just sent me these. Jim just asked me over the phone if I wanted to see PICS of the whole truck, or wait and see her in person... as much as its killin me, I want to see the finished product in person. If i gotta wait... yall gotta wait! :p

Re: Burb has paint!!!
Man... what suspense you must be experiencing.
 I couldn't contain myself if I had a freshly painted Burb just waiting.

Re: Burb has paint!!!
Sweet! Although i must admit, it will take a long time to get the reality of the new color to erase the white burb I have in my head.

Re: Burb has paint!!!
Looks like it is going to be awesome. I wish I knew a painter I could say "surprise me" to. Usually its more like "Do this" then he comes back with "surprise" =(.
