i have no idea. i live two blocks from there and see it just about every other day. good lookin car, i've only ever seen it move twice, though. most of the time it just sits there

when you get back up here for school, check out the local car club. im trying to get more chevy guys in. LOTS of mustangs now, but there's a good mixture of everything else. it's a completely open group that meets once a week at a local parking lot just to hang out and shoot the sh*t.

the local Maco does some pretty good paint jobs for a great price. a friend of mine got a car of his painted for about $500, and the thing looked like it had just rolled off the line. looked good for the year he had it, then he wrecked it. im gonna go with them for mine. if you're willing to pay a little more, there's a place off of highway 26 in lafayette by the intersection with 52. it's behind a place called "auto graphics", i believe it's called autobody and chrome, he does unbelievable work. you'll pay more, but if you can afford it, it's worth it.

I would really plan on spending at minimum $2,000 for paint and labor combined.
