WOA... guess who has a vivid yellow PAINTED one that's been freshly painted and NEVER used since? I bought it, "remodeled" it (ugh, mesh plus zipties), painted it, then let it sit.


Offer? Keep in mind its been completely remade (since the previous owners drilled holes for zip ties for the chicken mesh!) we filled those in, sanded it, patched some more, primed x3, painted x2.

funny thing I was the original owner. it got sold twice, then i re-bought it, not knowing it was my original :D

Drying:

And this isn't just a garage operation... my brother-in-law does collision repair for a living, he paints everywhere! (even in his home garage).

The clearcoat is one of the best around.

I paid like $75 for just the reconditioning
