We just got home...ugh very long day!...he's almost finished with the 2nd side, taping off that is. Back at it again tomorrow. Dino's going down early before me...I'm picking up more paint and supplies. The spraying starts tomorrow. And I thought my jeep was a PItA :scratch:

Just pray for us that we don't go to our graves before we go away! What a H of a year and 1/2.

That's nothing...you should see it now. I got there after work and WOW! And both of us taped and papered for 4 more hours and still not done. I'll make sure we get more pics tomorrow. The beast is all paper except for the 1st design to be painted hehe We are trying to coordinate a visit so you can see it. Too bad my jeep's not coming with us.

Get a double trailer

If you can make it that's fine, but I understand if you can't, no problem.

Beware of the mountains, low gear on some spots.
