A big shout out for LRC Triples Restoration in Fairfield CT... My side cover flew off and got run over by a truck. I had Z1 Parts send them a new one and then LRC sent it to me. All paint no decal. They did an amazing job...

Pretty nice, Skippy. What was the cost from each place? I have a damaged cover myself.

Side cover was $95 and paint was $170...maybe a bit expensive for the paint but i would expect that on a small order. But they did a great job.

Thanks. They're probably not getting any more per hour for paint than any other shop that does work that requires a lot of skill and patience.

Apologies to the O.P. but, rambling again... In '72, a H2 tank bone dry to full...$1.13. In 2001, bone dry to full $27.00.... (admittedly the gas was better back then!!)
