I cannot begin to think how much a paint job like this would cost a customer as there must be at least 5 Grand in paint & tape I’m slowly working my way through your back catalog of videos & each one is brilliant Your workmanship is amazing & your artistic imagination knows no bounds I’ve L&S & as yet I’ve not been disappointed

Thanks so much John! glad youre enjoying my stuff! Yes my paintjob was probably around the 5 grand mark for cost. If I billed out hours Im guessing itd be in the neighborhood of 25-30 grand.

Yoo even without the blue being clear that color is sick. I gotta hurry up and fix my imperfections on the trucks body then wait in line for a touch up paint.

super clean brother

Man, I really dig the paint job you did! It gives me big 90's mini truck vibes. But I like how you morphed so many styles to make it your own. I'm a chopper and hot rod guy, but it pains me to see a lack of originality in the scenes. Especially the chopper scene is so saturated with hyper historically period correct builds. Which I respect and can appreciate. Unfortunately it's become a style in it's own. I find it ironic cause they go for the 60's or 70's era primarily, which both of those eras were entirely about self expression. Nowadays a lot of the competitions look like they were often from the same builder. It just seems like folks are much less willing to go out on limb and do something wild. I'm a working class guy. I can't afford to go out and buy an old $20k HD engine. I take pride in the DIY ethic of builds. It may not be top tier show quality. At least I'm not just assembling old parts lol

Wow what an awesome message! Thanks for commenting man. Yeah, as this car is my rolling billboard, I wanted to go all out on it and try out as many different styles as I could. Even still, so far Ive heard "wheres the leaf?" , "wheres the pinstriping?" , "wheres the water droplets?" etc,etc. Meh. Ive put my heart and soul into this paint job and its rocking like 7 different HOK candies so Im loving it. so far this year have picked up Best In Show at a huge show on Vancouver island, 3rd best in show at a local smaller show, and Best Paint at Stay Gold car show. It has been an amazing summer and I have met so many cool people and experienced so many cool things. Thanks for watching!

Beautiful Monte I have a 1980 Monte Carlo All White with 80 Spokes Wire Wheels. Black Tinted Windows and The Bass System. That's about it, Don't need to do any more but keep it Clean Inside and Outside. Don't drive in The Rain or Snow. In lockdown over the Winter and drive only when dry out. Oh yeah have Small White Walls and keep them Bright White. Black Tires have the Black Wet Shiney look. Again you have a Beautiful Monte. Thank you.

@@Blarbling I would say it was a dying art form as all the old timers who kill at it are dieing off, but theres a select few of us young guns who want to keep that classic art alive and well. So power to you for wanting to get into it brother.

I have no idea how i found this channel, but a fellow BC Brother. Hell yeah! You might want to look at doing a collab with Make it Kustom, he does some amazing stuff.
