Default Woot!

Long day of shooting.. We had a hired gun come in to shoot a cover for PHR. It's a paint and body issue and we needed an appropriate image.

What they wanted was a bright colored car in a paint shop.. well, I knew of one... so... I volunteered.. lol

The guys at Best Of Show paint were great and put up with 6+ hours of moving this car here and that car there for the shots. Randy Lorentzen shot the car and employed a good $30,000 in camera equipment to get it done. It was cool to watch.

Anyways, spent the morning getting her ready for hte shoot. About the only thing I forgot was to bring the front spoiler. Now I can send the wheels off to get modified for the C5 junk.

Just an overall fun day of cars and talking smack..

spy pic..

That can't be a real working body shop... I mean where's all the body filler sanding dust all over the ground and car...and where are all the other cars in various stages that "will only take 5 weeks to complete?"

Actually BOS is a really clean shop.. and they only have the cars they are working on. It's why I took my car there in the first place.

That thing is awesome Steve. I'm bringing my car down in the spring so they can play and frolic together. That didn't sound gay did it?
Are you going with no front bumper?

Great shot. So, I'm guessing the car is done? What issue is it going to be in?
