Uhhhh, Kid.. I've changed my mind, I dont want to sell the Trailer afterall. I'll be up this weekend to pick it back up, please be sure it is rubbed out and washed before I get there............................................. ........................................:biggrin:

[JustAKid]

no problem :biggrin: we had a little fish eye problem on the top but it should all polish out , pounded the last to 2 coats of clear to make sure that I do not rub through

[MissKitty]

Nice job, Doug !
Let me know when you're done, I think I could find a job or two for you :biggrin:

Yo Douglas,

stupid question, but wasn't the trailer already Mulholland Blue :confused:

[JustAKid]

yes Pepe it was Mulholland already , but like a few pics showed earlier had a few flaws and was fine to pull to any event but for the shows I was thinking I wanted it to be more perfect , if I would have had to pay to do this it would not have gotten done

Man, I cant tell you again how much I appreciate you doing all that work to the Trailer! I'll be there tomorrow morning to pick it back up.
Please make sure it is washed before I get there, I dont want to be accused of towing anything dirty.............:beer:
