Title: The end is in sight!
Post by: Danny on July 13, 2009, 11:54:21 AM
Hello group,

I have been working on my MCI 102A3 for 3.5 years.  It is in the process of getting painted as we speak and the inside is coming along nicely.  I think another 6 months should do it...  Just wanted to say "thanks" to everyone who has provided advice during this progress to date!

I will have up to date pictures soon...

Good for you. Are you planning on hitting the road soon after? We love our 102a3 and are out and about. All the Best, M&C

Where are you having it painted, what is it costing? I got a quote this week for 3 color no bodywork, no stripping old paint at a cost of $17,500. Needless to say, I liked to have a coronary over this one.

A local man is doing the work at my house.  The labor will be $4000 and the material will come in about $1800 for one color with a white top.  He is also doing the stainless for this price.  It is taking a while (about 6 weeks so far).  He is about ready for the final coat.
