Fred had my EM body painted in 2002, I think he used the same silver stripes on most of his builds does anyone have silver stripes from Fred and know the paint code#? Thanks

Gene,

I probably won't like the answer, but is Fred not available to ask?

Tom

PS: My stripes are white.

Gene,

Fred's web site used to be at http://www.autovisionperformance.com/

It can't be found at the moment.

The last few times I tried to call him - left messages - didn't get a return call. Maybe it's just me LOL

I do hope he's doing well!

Tom

Tom did you Wreck your car at Summit point early 2000s?

Gene,

Yep. In 2003 it flipped when I spun it into the berm outside turn 3 at about 100mph. Fred repaired the car using a new body from Power Performance. Had a good surgeon at (I think) Charles Town to repair my arm...

On the original subject, I hope Fred is OK!
