Reply to "Project Pain(t) begins"

Finally! Today we moved my Pantera to the painter. After nervously looking for a dry bright day almost 2 months, they promised below freezing, no snow, not even any clouds, pure sunshine, in a 3-4 hour window. We only needed 45 minutes. So I called the painter early, he needed his breakfast, and then drove to my house with a powerboating friend. And guess what, when they arrived and my mobile's weather forecast showed only sun, it was snowing. Not a lot, but f...... annoying!

There was no turning back now, so I invented a drive bag for paint free cars. First plastic cover, then the normal cover to keep it all in place. Not ideal, but pretty ok.

We had to push it bare, and of course that meant that we were in a hurry. We had no time to rig a hand winch, so we "just" pushed it up onto the trailer. Not as easy as we thought, but halfway up and snowing, you find strength you didn't know you had Wink
