Went to visit crazy Dave the body shop guy today. Car is taking shape, the first pics are from last week. He put the first coat of primer on today, more body work and second primer coat this weekend. Should be painting it next week some time, he says ready in 2 1/2 weeks, I think more like 3.

That is going to be sweet! If you said, I've forgotten, what color are you going with?

Going with Ferrari Rosso Corsa Red. I know, everyone goes with red, but it's a great color and it's my car.

Hi Tony,
Has your spider been painted yet? I'm thinking of using the same color. Thanks, George

Re: Progress
Hey Tony. That looks great. I have one question for you. Is he only painting the outside of the car. I would have thought he would take off the doors, hood, and trunk to paint them.

Hi Tony,
How about some updated photo's? I have some myself but can't figure out how to send them to this site. I'm technologlically impaired.

Re: Progress
I will have to take some this weekend and post them. The body shop gave me some pics but they're all prints not digital. I am fairly good technically but for some unknown reason my computer doesn't "see" my scanner even though it "sees" the printer and they are one and the same. Sooooooo, I'll get some nice glamour photos of my car up this weekend.

Re: Progress
Tony, that sounds like a software driver issue, especially if you have an all-in-one. If you need help, PM me.tonyfromjersey wrote: for some unknown reason my computer doesn't "see" my scanner even though it "sees" the printer and they are one and the same.
