    chuck ......you always amaze me with the stuff you seem to know.........

    you are so right, JJ's son was killed in a bar called murpheys, trying to stop the place from being robbed!!!

    not to cahnge the subject, but i heard somewhere thst you paint pretty good???
    is this true??? is this what you do for a living???
    cause i was told you paint better than most..........i killed that bird for telling me that???
    you know a little about everything......ever heard of a guy called Billy Bunch??
    owns a machine shop in la marqe............anyway he is building me a custom motor for my Z-71 Pick up, 180,000 miles on her i just had the tranny,tranfercase, and axle replaced,and the motor let go about a month after all that work, inbetween all that, my wife got into tangle with a atm machine!!! the atm machine won!!! leaving a pretty good dent on the drivers side of my truck, if i am lucky my truck should be ready in a couple weeks??

    my wife feels so bad about it, probably because of all of the greif i gave her about owning the truck forever and not even a scatch!!!
    she has decided to paint it for me, as this will be my christmas present!!!

    is this somthing you can do???
    or can you recomend sombody??
    i want to keep it the same color, nothing fancy....
    i will pay a fair amount, for a decent paint job, i wnat this thing to last another 10 years!!!!

    yess this was a long hard summer for my family, bike and truck at the same time, god only knows how many hours i have put in,just to keep our heads above water and fix everything, the joys of being poor, but i can now see blue skies ahead,

    ya i know billy......a good wrench.........we prob had a beer or two together.....i lived in lamarque for a long time....i lived just down from murphys....spent a lot of $$$ in there...lol lol lol....yes i do custom paint and airbrush for a living.......but i dont paint cars or trucks.....just smaller stuff....if you want a custom paint job, i think pygmy will do cars and trucks, i know he has done a few in the past, but maybe he doesnt anymore...i also know of a guy in north lamarque that does exelent paint and body work, but not custom....dont kill the bird that told you......just tell them hey for me....cant imagine who told you....but most know what i do........if they ride and are from lamarque/texas city i probably know them..........small world....
