    It was, I believe, but it had to be stripped and repainted.

    Jim Weise and TSP.

    It is 1 am here in Delaware and the family and I just arrived home after a 12 hour drive from Indy.

    Indy was a great event attended by many very nice people!

    We were humbled and honored by the award of "Concours Gold".

    Jim Weise, what can I possibly say? You are one of the most talented men that I know. You and the staff at TriShield Performance followed through and Limemist absolutely exceeded all expectations! You made a dream come true for me and my family and from the bottom of our hearts -- Thank you.


    I do have much more to say and people to thank, but I am very tired after the long drive home. I will continue this tomorrow. :TU:

    3shields Let's go, MOUNTAINEERS!!!

    Get ready Larry....hope you have a big trophy case!!!

    Larry,

    Your car is everything anyone could ever dream for in a restored GS!!! I was totally impressed with your car. I have done these cars myself, and to see yours reminded me how much work goes into doing one of these cars to this level. I said it before, and I will say it again. Get ready, alot of good things are going to happen to you with this car. It will be your rewards for your efforts and patience.

    Jim,

    I was pleased to finally get to meet you. The limemist car will no doubt be known as one of the premier buicks in existence. My hat is off to you and the whole Tri-Shield group. You guys can work on my buicks anytime. I wish they had put my car on the other end......I had "butt-prints" on it from people leaning on it to look at Larry's car!!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Great Job, and great to meet people like you all. Finally got to put faces with alot of the names I am familiar with.....and EVERYONE was great to talk to.

    Buick People Rule!!!!

    Brand new car eh, verrry nice. Awesome work. :TU:

    Jim, you may not recall it, but Ed (Topless 64-455) brought David Gramlow and myself to your shop last fall where you gave us the $3.00 tour :laugh: , and you were painting a few of the body parts for Larry's car that day. We could tell that the attention to detail was very evident in your work. :TU:


    Jim, since you actually drove Larry's car some 63 miles does that qualify it for the "30%, no longer brand new, drive off the lot discount, on the final price??" :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    Seriously though, I wish I could have seen the finished product in person. Had I remembered about Indy, I would have driven there from the truck stop in New Point IN, that I spent most of Sunday parked at. :Dou: :Dou:

    The piece de resistance has to be the protective towels between the hoist and frame rails. :shock: I've never, ever done that, of course, I don't own a concours car either. :grin:

    Sooooo.... anybody have a pic of Larry just as he sees Limemist for the first time?? :Do No: :Do No:
