Default Say goodbye to Ghost Rider

One of our customers brought this car in and dropped it off for a complete repaint. The car received this paint job about 10 years ago. The painter had Stan Lee the comic book writer come out and sign the paint job.

The color has not been decided yet. He wants a solid color. The first huge step will be stripping the car because the paint is very thick and it has a fair amount of bondo.

Wow. Kind of crazy that you would get rid of such an intricate paint job but change can be a good thing.

Too bad the paint job wasn't taken care of. A shame to paint over it especially with Stan Lee's sig.

That sucks. He should sell the car to someone who would take care of the paint and start over with a different car.

Most people don't think of that. They are only in their little world of what they think is cool.

While I think it's sad to lose something of a little extra special value like that, it's his car and it's time to go. Look at it from a cosmic POV, all of existence is cycles of creation and destruction.
