Norcal Spotted and BS Thread

Dude.

Opportunity knocks.

 

i detail paint for side cash, id never buy a maaco job.

 

But...who doesn't like a poorly prepped paint surface and single stage paint?

 

Guy who parks next to me in my parking garage got a brand new Mercedes AMG SL 63. Not a huge fan of Mercedes, but damn that thing is sexy. 5.5 liter twin turbo V8, the thing fuckin roars. I almost couldn't stop rubbing my crotch against it, hope he likes pinstripes. Much want, need 2 more jobs.

 

Boner alert

Edit: Been totally eyeing the progression of Camaros for my 30th bday present in 4 years

 

I would totally be...Danny

 

Want to join the Douchecanoe Club? Srsly, it seems everyone who has one drives like a complete douche.

EDIT:
This, however, I'll allow.

 

you ever driven one? they have a horrendous blind spot. Driver probably has no idea anyone is around him.

 

No, but many modern car designs are retarded like that. Between designed-in blind spots and cell phone, I am actually starting to think driverless cars are looking better and better.

People-less roads would be better, but I'm not holding out for that.

EDIT: my truck with a heavily tinted cap and kids seat and kids sunshade has a deadly blind spot on the passenger side, but mirrors, situational awareness, speed management, and decisiveness are the answer.

You know, skills every driver on the road has today.

 

Yes, that is a club I've been interested in. My mom had a 67 in that color, no stripes tho

 

My college buddy have one very similar, 327 4-speed manual. I opened it up on 780 once and got up to 120 before my vagina started quivering.

 

Go on...

 

I was so moist, when I hit the brakes, I slid under the dash.

 

Been also eyeballing the Charger SRT cuz 4 doors

 

Time to take the undies to












Although now I feel dirty and tainted and that can't be washed away

 

Paint isn't that hard to DIY. Clear coating can be a steep learning curve, but elbow grease has a fix for that. I'd call around and see if there's a local auto body shop that rents spray booth time, and/or any high school/JC/etc,. that offers an auto body course as they usually own a spray booth, if not, they'd know where to rent one.

I haven't painted in a long time, but have done 5 or 6 cars with excellent results with good materials and cheap guns. Hopefully doing the '49 next summer.

 

I had a '69 in that color, no stripes, 383, m-22 4-speed, 12 bolt posi. Should never have sold that one. Worst part is, I didn't have too!

 

Random question, should I tip a guy who is installing my new pool pump? He's charging $125/hr, so I'm not too keen on throwing more money into it since it seems to be quite expensive as it is. If so, $10 good?

I never know what and when to tip, seems not necessary in most instances IMO.

 

I only tip for personal services.
