Seats In
Dino Outing
An outing for the Dino before reassembly starts.
Engine Rebuild
I received the engine which was rebuilt by Patrick Ottis. I was quite surprised at the cosmetics considering his reputation. NO WAY was that going in Eric’s Dino, it would of stuck out like a sore thumb. I removed a lot of bits and pieces for plating, tumbling, powder coating and cleaning. Already looking much better! There must of been some miscommunication between the owner and the shop concerning cosmetics.
Blue Sera Metallizzato TODAY!
In the paint booth today!!. Brad has done another fabulous Dino paint job. Reassembly starts the week after Bella Italia. The plan is to have it there on the rotisserie for just another view of a Dino on the lawn.
