It will be at the guy's shop he built on his property. He has a booth he made as well.

Pretty remarkable set up for a home shop.

I do agree with you mike, though this will hopefully get more work for me in the future and also allow the general paint and body community know I'm still around. After fifteen years at my last job it seems people thought I quit painting or died or something.

So, a little cheap, sure. It'll be my calling card though.

I'm not doing the bodywork either too. That's worth a $1500 knock off of the price too.

All good man I'm working on it, have your people call my people,
Wait, I don't have 'people'
Hey dave, you got any people?

He's actually onto something there Dave... @Davedacarpainter.
With all the staged crap that is reality car TV now-a-days,..it'd be refreshing to see ACTUAL real work that progresses along. You need to find a local guy w/ a good 1080p camera that can record the progress and edit the thing down after the fact, and sell the whole thing as a series to the Velocity channel. Maybe you could also include a live web cam at the location so that you could interact w/ some of the people here and I can make snide comments.
I'm telling you, there is a market for REAL reality TV out there, somebody just has to keep the TV show producers out of the equation.
Figure it out Dave,....You'd be a thousand-aire

I was aware of the camera in the phone thing, I've actually used it before. It really seams like a pita to me to do it, this may be because I don't really know the how's, why's and where's of the process.

Hey, I started this thing, kinda, sorta like, but if it bombs I had nothing to do with it.
Ok, I got some ideas for dramatic effect, gotta have some drama, and lots of swearing, and, and BEER, need beer with strange names yea, thats it!
Now where's that printer, I have to print some tickets, and people, I need people.
