^ A wonderful 3-letter word to learn: Meh...

That'd be cool. Hopefully we can get soundwavetsunami to hook up with us, too. That'd be fun!

Alright, anyone have any great ideas for fixing the rust hole in the floor board there? I'm thinking just weld in a peice of sheet metal, but IDK if that area is really load-bearing or anything, so I don't want to screw up the chassis any more than it already is. Also, with the rust that extends beyond the flat part and into the rolled portion of the floor pan, what is the best way of going about that?

And finally, the million dollar question:
Does anyone know how much it costs for the paint to redo a winning silver paint job? Also, I know it is a gold metal flake, but it also seems to be a bit of a flip-flop paint job (in certain light it's light silver, in other light it's bronze). Is it a pearl coat at all, or is that just the way the metal flake is?

I like it! That's probably what I'm going to do. I'm thinking a zinc-based primer coat to stop rust on the inside and out when I get the rust fixed on the floor board. I personally think that looks pretty damn good!
