Our 1984 badly needs new paint. We're intending to go to Mexico and Central
America later this year after sorting out all the mechanicals.

We're thinking to get the bus prepped and painted down south somewhere where the
labor is cheaper.

We were trying to settle on a color scheme and finally came up with this:

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Any non-obscene comments are welcome.

All you need to go with it is the "PEACE" sign, I think it looks groovy.... We visited the paint shop in Mexico just across the border from Yuma. They have several books with pictures of coaches they have painted, and bluebirds were included. We also saw a bird that they had painted in bright blue and orange, retro and it looked great!!!

Good Luck,

Steve

I only got a ? in a box instead of an image ...

I understand Navarro's body and painting somewhere along the US/Mexican border is considered an especially good body/paint shop. Here's the listing from the files section online (Paint Shops recommended by members).

Navarro's Shop

Body Paint and Upholstery Shop

Enrique or
Socorro Navarro

Algodones, MX - just across the border in AZ

U.S. Telephone: 928-343-2750

Many member s have used them with great results.

the rainbow color scheme would attract interest but you might want to drive it
only in very liberal minded areas

I got a non-display error in Safari 4.x ... but Firefox displayed the image without problems. You might try an alternate program and/or try to download the image and view it with another program.

What was odd was that I got the message in Firefox, then opened it OK in IE,
then went back to FF and it opened OK there as well.

As a separate issue, since .GIF is limited to 256 colors this is the sort of
image that almost demands .JPG with 16 million colors.
