I need somebody
(Help!) not just anybody
(Help!) you know I need someone
Help!
I never needed anybody's help in any way
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self assured (but now these days are gone)
(And now I find) Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the doors
All joking aside, I'm posting this thread to ask for ANY help regarding tools, materials, etc. to finish the paint work on this car. Current circumstances have presented the situation where I would rather spend the money to buy things like a rotisserie, paint, etc. than pay the shop to do work I can do myself. The car has been there for two years and two mos and they now have time to work on my car since there isn't a lot of collision work.
A lot can happen in two f--king years, like I finally learned how to do this after working in a body shop for six mos. Someone tried to tell me I couldn't do upholstery on a Charger but they were wrong and that is a whole different rant.
This is the Fritz R/T, one owner, Dr. Fritz who paid cash and drove this wonderful car until 1983 and then parked it in his garage. It's all original #'s matching everything, nothing has been screwed with or changed. The interior was dirty but virtually perfect - needed new seat covers, foam, etc. which I have already done - crap, almost everything has been done for this car and has been sitting on a rack of shelves for the past two f'g yrs. Any new/replacement parts have been ordered and is waiting with the rest of the stuff.
I'm breaking out of "painters prison" and getting this car done and not be subject to someone more interested in making money on collision work while they sit on my $$ and my car and tie up what I have already invested in it.
So, any help/advice would be sincerely appreciated. Thanks!
