Starting on May 16th, we'll be working around the clock to block, seal, prime, block, fill and block one more time, then wetsand and base clear the Lil Lukester. I decided to go with 1972 Targa Blue - I'm a blue car freak and that color just ROCKS!!
The goal is to knock all of this out between sunday and Fri with me and my bro!! 
Wish us luck - I'll take a ton of pics and post the transformation. STAY TUNED!!!

Yer dar tootin' Dave!! I've been planning this for 5 years!!!! I'm somewhat nervous about using one of those uhaul carriers so I'm just going to take it slow and let the speeders blow by me...
Anyone ever use one of these before? Pulling it with my Yukon. One of me friends recommended investing in a brake controller. any thoughts on this?
Thanks all,
Paul
