I got all the jambs trunk engine bay and dash in 2k primer… Going to look great!!! 😎   Time to start sanding for paint on the bottom side, inside the fender wheels above tranny, below gas tank etc…..   That is about the shittiest paint session to do, especially in base/ clear….. 8-(  That shit is all shooting back in my face my eye’s are burning like poison has been put in em!!!

Willy is just about done needing KCW to get to his next chapter of life… His bumpers are painted, I think all his shit is painted. except for his Dad’s Vespa fender he is redoing as I type… 8-(  Bolt that engine in, bolt the bumpers together and install, Doug brought his seat by yesterday, I hope HE PAID HIM!!!!!  or I will have too… 8-(  shit.. Hook a few wires up and hit the road to Southern California.. Encinitas in fact… a little slice of american paradise down by the beach…. 😎  It’s been fun… It’s been real… and I have graduated another intern…  All the interns ended up with a nice car when they left… 😎  😎  Lucky them…… 😎

I almost want an intern shirt.. or maybe a “School of KCW” shirt… 😎     but only three guys woud want one and one of the interns doesn’t like me no more.. 😎  😎

Is Ronnie going to set up the KCW Address this year? I thought after five years you got that consideration.

 

Seems a bit subjective…  I’ll take care of it myself this year…  😎
