I think it looks pretty * good too! Done a few of them wood fired barn paint jobs myself and some of them came out cleaner than in a spraybooth. The wood fire always made me a little nervous though.

Looks real good Sam. I like the name and color. It'll be a wicked racer. Keep us posted

Sam's probably still sanding on that Tony. It takes a little more work to get cardboard shiney.
