Quick theme related question: Is the stuff used to make chalkboards Spray-on?

It can be, yes. More typically it's roller paint, though.

It's also apparently heavier than normal paint, and I'm pretty sure the theme in question has been done.
 
Clegko was thinking more along the lines of pratt & miller when really needed to think along the lines of pooper&mooper lol :)

Well my idea is that you paint the whole car in chalkboard spray and then just Draw over it (stuff like ?AiR goes here? and a arrow pointing to the Mailbox scoop).

why not just do like finger paint style around that stuff and leave the crap paint/other theme paint job on it.

@Punisher Bass O come on you had a smile when you saw that

Chalkboard paint to cover a car would cost a few hundred dollars. That stuff is expensive and needs to go on thick to work.
 
I like the "AiR goes here" idea.

Maybe include a picture of a cat whacking a lolvo next to it? :D
 
I know updates have been rather light recently, as Quiky already mentioned, but we should have something new to show you in the next couple days.
 
New belts are on, new brakes are on the front (and not really working because we dont have the equipment to bleed it), we lightened the car up alot, the new gearlever is on, cleaned up a bit of wiring. Photos will be later once McLightning95 feels like posting some.
 
Picture of all the money I found in the car when we were stripping the inside a few weeks ago, forgot to post it last time. I think in all it is something like $3.84.

Car got a slight nose job. We had to take the front bumper off to take the air dam off.

The bumper re-attached, that may or may not be a zip-tie helping to hold it on. :p

The left front side, before we started taking the brakes apart. Note the broken bolt/thing on the bottom left.

We couldn?t get the bolt thing-y out so my dad (basically) drilled it out.

Ta-da! (all that was left)

Well, now we needed another bolt. (Below - Q and my Dad looking up AutoZone?s number.) Cue Q and I running down there to grab a few bolts and some brake fluid. At the store Q went in search of the bolts while I hunted down the brake fluid. I got what we needed, turned to walk away and some lady comes up to me,
?Excuse me, do you work here?? - lady
?No, sorry? - me
?Oh, it?s just that you seem to know what you are looking at.? (or something to that effect) ? lady
I was about to offer to try to help her but she walked off. :lol:
