    Saw Jaws last week on TCM - thought of you, Johnny LOL. I remember when shark skin suits were hot, before your time, I think. I had considered painting my scooter metalic grey, sort of a sharky color.

    I kinda like the middle one. The last one is nice looking but just not very practical.

    Going to go to the painters place today and going to get going on the sprayouts. Will cost me about $50. Not bad I thought.

    By sprayouts do you mean color swatches to see how the painted tins will look?
