Months ago I spoke of an art car. (The 10 panels of one of my checkers being painted and signed by 10 local artists.) That car is ready to paint. Anyone interested in doing a panel please contact me. Should be fun and schedual and logistics are liberal. Must be a washable finish.

Can you put me in touch with whoever is going to have it this weekend? I have lots of ideas, and even more free time to get a lot more work done.

I stopped by and looked at the car today. I was not sure where we stood. I am not going to move it untill you guys tell me it is time. So tell me when. I did not know if more work was going on the front bumper.

Front bumper needs a little more work. PV- if you want to plan to work on it at my house this weekend, that would be fine. Until this weather dries out and maybe warms up a bit, no one else will be able to really do any priming, IMO. If it needs to move on somewhere else, that's fine too, we can travel!😀

Excellent. I'll probably stop by tomorrow after work.... around 2:30 or 3. If not then, I'll definitely be there Sunday.

The ladies working on the car have impressed me. It is more then I ever expected!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a great start (Allison).
It sounds like the trunk and back bumper are complete. The hood (Christina), front bumper (Beachmom's amazingly talented daughter), and interior (Molly), have been started. I think they are ongoing works. The car goes to Andy LuBoe's next where he and hopefully Joe Elmore are going to do magic on a front and back fender respectively. Then Eddie and Sally will do the other back fender and a rear door. It then goes to B Gaffery. She is painting a front door and organizing two other Artists for the other front door and the roof. (Thanks by the way). Kim Pall is next for driver's side back door. I think that about does it. Nope! Last but not least, the taxi light and front grill will be done by Philippa when she gets here. If this isn't the A team I don't know what is. Thank you all!!!! and updates to follow.

OK Artists!!!! Debbie Wheeler at the Walton Sun just called me about the art car...... She needs information on all of you :idontno: (your last names would be a GREAT start!!! LOL) please either phone her at 267-4555 or email her at Debbie_Wheeler@link.freedom.com
Thanks a BUNCH!!!😀 😀

interior is done, too. It's just a bunch of small pictures, but I just can't think of anything else to add.
