check out my custom mailbox!
 
No joke, it really is custom. I had to make a mailbox out of sheet metal when I was in street rod and custom fabrication in school. I finally got a digital camera, so now I can show off the bad ass paint job I put on it. Enjoy. 8)

Thanks. Thats the first thing I ever painted. It took me almost 6 hours to get the flames laid out the way I wanted them and masked off.

I would have, but my teachers wouldn't have given me any points for that. I was actually gonna just leave it bare metal and clear coat it, because I didnt use any body filler and I wanted to show off (you'd be suprised how much body filler others had to use), but again the teachers wouldn't give me any points for that.

Tru2Chevy 02-07-2005 10:18 AM

They wouldn't have given you points if you used yellow and red? Did they have to be done with only certain colors?

not that, I had to paint it completely, no primer.

Plus, I got more points for ghost flames than I would have gotten for regular flames
