Dateline – 02/14/2015 - Mark your calendars everyone! The Jaguar has gone to the paint shop! The tow truck arrived at 8:30 am on Saturday
and we had it loaded and ready to go by 9:10. I had all the fenders, doors, etc. in the van
and we both headed over to Chowcase Auto Rebuild where Ricky my paint guy was ready for
it. We pushed it into the shop, I brought
in all the part getting ready to paint.

Ricky said that he have the body for about two months. He will paint the body first then I can pick
it up and start installing other things while he works on the doors, lids, hinges,
etc. This way I can get the car together
and not have to worry about damaging all the other parts! Pretty cool!
Also, I picked up an air compressor from the guy I bought
the sandblaster from. 60 gallon, 10 cfm
@ 90 psi. He used it to run the
sandblaster and had no problems. Now I
just need to get a 220 volt 15 amp breaker put and wired so that I can plug it
in!
