Thing is, really nice guy, real reasonable price....My brother in arizona is sending me his tins for him to do a Warbird style paint on.

I told him he needs to do this for a living, he says there is not enough business for him.

His pick-up truck is a Veterans Memorial truck, every major war is pictured on it, something like 3000hours of work....

Awesome work. Judging from the girl, it must have been a little cold that day.

Any custom paint on the fenders?

No custom on fenders......yet

Since the tanks look so good, I probably will take them off and get rid of the Orange/Red pinstripe on them.
