Hello from a new member

I just found this site today, and its great! I have been in the musclecar restoration parts business, and have been building cars for several years, but I haven't done much painting yet. I started a new job with a paint booth manufacturer a few months ago, running their training center, so I now have access to several modern paint booths and the company is encouraging me to use it for my own projects! I'm starting my first flame job in the next few days (on a forklift!), and I'm planning one for a 1982 Trans Am in the near future (doing bodywork now). Great site, I've learned lots already!

Definately take advantage of the booth every chance you get!
Welcome, and post some pics of the flaming forklift when you're done

Whereabouts in Atl are you? I lived in Sandy Springs, Stone Mtn, and Buckhead.

I live in Jonesboro and work off Fulton Industrial, near Six Flags. I'll post some pics when its finished...our old forklift had several coats of paint, and I'm stripping it right now. I had to paint it anyway, figured I might as well get some flame painting experience while I'm at it!

I'm picking up the paint tomorrow, so hopefully by midweek next week the forklift will be finished. Its going to be '03 Vette Electron Blue with red, orange, and yellow flames. I'll post pics when its finished!
