Talking Car Painted by Bruce - What do You think?

I went to see Bruce Bunn today and put the body back on my car. I think it came out great. What do you think?
Picture attached - I Hope...

Look's awesome. I have seen his work firsthand and he does great work. I meant to swing by there today to chat with him about finishing something up for me.

Looks great! Once again, Bruce delivers a great paint job for a happy customer. I'm proud to be included in that group.

How many Cobras has he painted since starting with mine? Anybody know? Come to think of it... is he a registered CC member yet? If not, why? (Too much time painting Cobras, I'm sure.)

Keith, I'd wager he's done about 10 easily--probably more.

Looks great, but I would have waited to paint it until I could afford the hood and doors too

He's done quite a few I believe. He did two just before mine inthe last month or so and has a Kirkham in the shop right now that is awesome. He is putting a 427 in it as well. Kind of a turnkey job.

Oh man, doors, hood & trunk, I knew there was something else he wanted.

Thanks, hope to meet some of ya'll in person this spring/summer at a few of the drive in events...

See Ya...

Bruce did The Orange One and did a great job! Went the extra mile and painted it on New Years day to meet my deadline. Can't go wrong with him

Bruce painted Bill's 1960 Falcon and did a terrific job. We refer all of our engine customers to him. He has a very successful paint and body shop for all types of repair from daily drivers to classic restorations.

David the car looks great - now get it together so we can cruise.

I bet Bruce has done close to 30 Cobras and all of them look great.

I was to stubburn to let him do mine as I wanted to see if I could do it. Bottom line I learned a great deal - next time I'll let him do it. Mostly because my arms are still tired and it's been a year

DavidH,
Looks great, not that this should surprise anyone, Bruce is excellent.

I was actually there for part of the process and lent Bruce a hand with the hood when he was taping the car off.... if you look real close I think I left a fingerprint in the hood

Chill,
Dude, that's just mean. Bruce actually let me watch while he put three coats of paint and then 3 coats of clear on the car. Allot of folks don't even want you in their shop these days. Great guy and a great job. Got the car home last night and will be putting all the trim on this week (at least the days I'm in town).
So when is the next event? Poor Boys in Canton??? I gotta get busy.

Thumbs up

DavidH;
Your car looks great--I do love the silver w/ black

David--I think we met at one of the Canton Riverstone cruises last summer--it will be good to see you there in the car this year!

Take care;
Charlie
