Arthur.

I call it "Love Potion No. 9." It is in a class of its own, to be sure.

Every time I see a new offering from Paul I think that he has taken it to the next level, how high can it go?.....Someday.....

Impressive!

Yes, John. At customer's request, it's per Graham's. But because of smaller body area, less amber center and more transition through the colors.

That's a perfect fireglo!

I Think Melissa got ir right. Its AwesomeGlo.

I used to think the same thing about CB and ordered my AZ Blue WB without it when it was an available option. Bummer. I love it now, and CB looks great on the double bound 381 too!!

So Paul, what is the proceedure for a quote and leadtime for refinish work? I have a '77 4001BT that I would like to respray in white CV. The original finish is stripped off and there is some minor woodwork to be done with the bridge route. Contact me off-line at your conveinence.

That reminds me Paul, I've got to get that toaster in the post to you.

The week is almost over and I haven't received any drugs yet. I really don't want have to check into rehab as I here those clinics steer the patients towards G****** & F******.

Working on it (them). I've got one in per-tik-ler that I'd love to share, but have to wait until it's finished 100%.

You'll know why when you see it. I can give a clue, however...it's finished in a new burst called "Chianti".

Beyond that, mum's the woid.

I'm just wrapping up a '58 Capri...photos on that in a day or two. The rest right now are Light Show conversions. The Aqua Bass is being fettled.

Just hang on another day or two. Aitch will probably be in a shot or two.
