Fastest tank in the west!

Well, maybe not the fastest, but certainly one bad ass powder coat color!!!

Ya, this is going in the car... but I don;t like it very much,I put it in last night and it doesn't match the car color at all! Kind of a bummer, but it only costed me $40 to get it powder coated, so i can't gripe too much.

Yellow is probably my favorite color. Which is why my next project, a '66 911 R replica, is giong to be yellow. Then the next project, either a 356 or the 962CR, will be black. Can you see where my sick mind is going with this? Yellow, Red, Black... The german flag colors. Then a 3 car garage to display them all side by side. I could just by a flag, but that would be rational.

HEY!!!!! Who you calling pink!?!? The paint i ordered was Valspar Gaurds Red, but it seams to have more violet than orange, making it look pinkish in different shades of light. Oh well, i learned my lesson, its nothin but Glasurit from here on out. But for doing everything myself, and the first car i ever painted on my own, i can;t beat up myself too hard.
