Here's the finished pics of my mailbox I'll be puttin in front of the homestead. I painted it for my Mom, this was my x-mas gift for her. She actually gave me the idea since I was broke an I got the paint fo free, so I painted her up in my Auto Graphics class at school. Enjoy

Sonic Blue for the win! It took me a total of about 16 hours to do it, roughly. I had to wait around for some stuff, but it took a decent amount of time.

I gave an official "The Nightmare Before Christmas" lunchbox to a good friend

I should have kept it... I love zero. Got it at the famous "Unclaimed Baggage"

Looks great, but I think the mailbox baseball kids will think that too! That one is worth like 100000 points.

I got it from Lowes, it was the medium sized, 17 dollar model.


I also lubed the door hinges for better mail flow too, so hopefully it does pretty good, my friend is gonna put it on a chassis dyno in his Dyno Theories Class on monday, Im hoping for around 14 newspower. I cant wait for the good news (no pun intended)
