If someone wants to make some extra money, I need my car stripped, prepped, and painted...I have all resources necessary...if i don't i will buy them. I also just aquired a three car garage where one part of the garage will be taped off for a painting booth.

I need someone who has done this before and knows what they are doing. Pay will be discussed when you get ahold of me.

# to reach me: 636-578-1324

My name is Justin by the way, and I'd appreciate any help. I just bought the car and the douche bag tried to put a body kit on it and the body kit looks like shit, so i'm going to put a new one on. The car is a 3000gt TT and he tried to rice it out....ya just don't do that to a 340 hp car. That's something you do to a honda or something along those lines. Had to vent...

You're more than welcome to come help and throw in your 2 cents, but i'm looking for someone who is proficient in body work and painting. No offense.

Do you really know what you are getting yourself into? I have a 1972 Cutlass that I hit a deer with and since then I have done a frame off restoration to it. Last summer I spent all summer doing body work and painting it. I did it all myself. First off my paint supplies cost $500 and that was at a discount because I worked at an auto supply store. I bought Dupont paint, so you could probably find cheaper paint. You also need an air compressor with a DA, straight line sander, and paint gun. This really wouldn't be a weekend project. My Cutlass had some rust so I fixed those parts which made the body work harder. It would be alot eaiser to paint over the existing paint job if the car doesn't need any body work. You can just rough up the existing paint with scotch bright and then prime it. Thats what I did for the places that didn't need body work. My car also had the windows out and no interior, so I didn't need to tape off that much.

I've done all that before. I think it is fun. If you want my help, Im in. I have done it with my truck, and I have it with me this week. It was one of my first jobs and it still looks really good, sans a few accidents.

I'll call you...
