    So today my baby is getting fixed after it was hit my a truck. Hopefully it will be done by Friday. Here are the pictures of the place and what he has done so far. I'll also be getting the GRIP fascia painted. It'll be updated daily on it's progress.

    It's really chilly. It's been snowing quite a bit lately.

    Are you going to put it back to the exact way you had it paint wise with the stripes, etc? .... or do something a little different?

    I hope the car isn't down too long...with any luck, maybe you can get your pinstripes painted on now, at someone else cost. That would be nice.

    Coming along nicely Ben...

    I am surprised they spent all that time pulling the dent on the fender, rather than just replacing it?

    that is the same thing I thought ...

    the only reason I figured he did it that way .. is I heard to blend the paint on these cars you would have to go into the door if he replaced the fender ... maybe he did it to cut down on having to blend the paint in/????

    the dent wasn't too bad, he spent maybe 5 minutes pulling it out. the front fascia and fender are going to be primed and painted today though. I'm so excited.
