In a few hours I’ll be zooming off in Stude across the desert to Las Vegas…where I get to see my fabulous family! This past weekend as I was in Mojave, my brother and nephews just happened to be passing by so stopped into Gene Winfield’s shop to say “hi.” It was such a treat to have them stop in – and the little guys hadn’t seen Stude’s sparkly headliner yet…between that and the engine they were pretty impressed. Evidently (according to my nephews) the speed of a car is entirely dependent on its paint job. So Stude has some catching up to do…Trey says bright yellow is the fastest. Don’t worry, as adorable as my nephew is, Stude won’t be painted yellow anytime soon! Happy Trails, Kristin 4 Responses Jameswaterwolf July 29, 2010 I was told that cars will go faster with a slippery wax job to allow for better airflow ! Try it Kristen and get back to us with the results ! I kinda like the leather look for a paint scheme. Paint it flat black and then add polish for the leathery shine… James Reply Phil Luyer July 30, 2010 Have a good trip GG! We’re flying out in about 30 hours, headed to San Francisco, then down to LA and then across to Vegas… Although we’re going the long way there… Reply greasegirl July 31, 2010 Stude made it to Las Vegas like a champ! Good luck on your trip Phil…looks like your heading to Bonneville??? Reply Jesse July 31, 2010 So adorable! I’m glad to see everything’s still in working order on the Stude.
