    Hot Rod Flatz Black Paint Job Completes Show Car Project

    Preview

    Recently we officially ended the Hardcore Knight project without ever really addressing the paint job. Since it is the first thing you notice on this car, it bears some attention.

    The flat black from Kustom Shop’s Hot Rod Flatz collection was used to finish off this project. What’s great about this collection of paints is that it has that old school rat rod feel, but with a durable paint system. This whole flat paint look came from the days when guys would hot rod their rides, but never got past the primer stage when it came to paint. It may have been due to lack of funds, but more likely, since it was in the early days of hot rodding, speed was king and fancy paint jobs came second to horsepower.

    Faith Quality Auto Body Embraces Technology to Make Every Repair a Quality Repair

    Visible from California’s Highway 15, “Faith” Quality Auto Body, Inc. is located in the fast growing suburban area between Riverside and San Diego. In 1979 when Lee Amaradio, Jr. opened his shop, Murietta was a quiet rural town. In an act of faith, Amaradio sold his home and invested all his assets to build his shop in the isolated area. See story below.
