Junk on the Trunk....
Well the trunk lid is complete....I don't think it came out too bad...for me being amateur at this whole painting thing. Saturday we start on the engine lid and then go to paint the whole machine when its done being "mudded". I am so pleased with the progress and I am still praying that I can make the deadline for the show in Rochester on the 19th of April. Hopefully we got ALOT done on Saturday because thats my last weekend to work with Jeff before the show....ugh..I am so nervous, but I know we will make it!!!!
