So the shop finally got the majority of the paintwork done! I can't wait to see the GTX in my garage!
I've got color!

I brought it there last April so about a year and a half. The crappy part is that they are so close to being done and I'm broke! After all the money I've thrown at them I come up a few thousand short. I guess now it starts the real jail sentence!

That looks amazing! The color is stunning. A friend of mine got his out of paint jail and home last year. Same color. The garage is WAY too cramped for my liking but here’s a couple of pics for motivation. Good luck with the rest of the build.
love those bright colors,looking go.

Sucks, doesn't it? It's hard to open the wallet for car parts when all you want to do is get the shop paid!Mine is in that jail right now...

Yes it does, I said you can't have one complete body man from all here in my town, and I see that applies everywhere, my car is half done, you're right is hard to open your wallet for car parts when you know you have to pay to get the car painted, most of the body man tri to rip me off, because is a classic they said, too much work, you know how this goes on and on, BEAUTIFUL COLOR, and congratulations on you car, am sure things will move a lot faster now that the car is out of that forsaken prison.

You must have missed the part where I said they are not done yet. The shop is 300 miles away 'cause I don't trust the shops in my town. They still need to paint a few things black. I hope to get the cash together to get the car back in my garage in 3 or 4 months. Then, yes, the fun begins and things will start to come together!

You will have an awesome car when finished....take your time when it comes home. Trust me, it's worth the extra wait time.
Love that green on the GTX.
