MY NEW PAINT JOB
Wonder why I made those custom light buckets? Check my custom painted MT body. Just finished last night.
Now imagine those lights in that body.....SWEET
Pics to come when body arrives in a few days.

RE: MY NEW PAINT JOB
The paint job is not mine, it was done by Steve Zielke at www.zielkeracing.com.
I had to supply the shell ($150) and the paint job ran me close to the same thing. HOWEVER, he did indicate to me that if anyone wanted the same job (Candy Red) that it would cost them more. Mainly because the Candy Red Paint is extremely expensive. So keep in mind that the paint color is the biggest factor in the price.
As for bashing....HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLL NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is a show piece through and through. Wait to you guys see my lights in this baby, then you will see how much it rocks! In a few weeks I will also have an all aluminum setup on my MT chassis using Elcon parts. So the faster those "NUTS" get the parts to me, the faster I can put up the pics.

RE: MY NEW PAINT JOB
Let me remind you guys that Steve is now painting full time (he was part time before, so thats why the response times were so long). He told me that he is working on some sweet MB and MT designs and shells as we speak. So now is a good time to check and get a price quote from him. He can make any design you see on the site and whatever other design you like.
Check it out and tell him Kirkieboy sent ya : www.zielkeracing.com
P.S. the best way to get steve is at [email protected]
