My Family Roots in Off Road Paint Jobs

[Lifeflight]

I'm starting this thread to give props to my dad's paint jobs and how i became obsessed with the OLD SCHOOL LOOK. Candies, metal flake and the rest. These 1st two are of a couple of original MacPherson RTVs. Circa 1976

That's sick, but i think that first truck could have belonged to Hamilton Building Materials, thats there company logo below the mirror.

These are of Bobby Neth's including a shot of him at Parker with Sal at the awards. Year unknown. Before 1983 i think

Your correct. Rich painted the RTVs for Joe Mac before each truck was sold to the public. Think "1st dealer preped pre runners".

Heres some recent work i did circa 2005 for Nick Parker. All MetalFlake and Candy paint on his Family SS1. Maybe Nick could post a shot of the completed car for us.

Nice thread, Jim! Sure, I'd be happy to post a pic of the finished car, thanks again for your hard work!

Nick, why are you NOT racing the NORRA Mexican 1000 in that Funco? Thats a sweet car and MADE for that race. You'd be suprised how easy it is to run NORRA and pretty easy on the pocket book too!
