The Great Milano Fiasco Slowly Comes To An End...

["Damian Magista" <magista@domain.elided>]

Well, it's been a long weird trip trying to get my 'new' Milano on the road.

After many many months of jumping through hoops, driving here and driving
there I finally got to the point to where I could have the front end
painted. I shopped around and found a guy out on Roosevelt Way (I live in
Seattle).

I took it out there and he looks at it and goes, "$800". I look in the
garage and notice a nice yellow Alfa Spider in there. Good sign.

About two weeks later I get my tax return (enough for the paint job). I call
him up and he says bring it in on monday. This is on a friday. Monday rolls
around and I bring it in. This time there is a white 308 in the garage.
Another good sign.

On wednesday I call to see how it's going. He tells me it's done and I can
pick it up in about an hour. ALRIGHT! I'm there in an hour to pick it up.

I had him paint the hood and both front fenders and blend. I cannot even
begin to tell you what an incredible job he did. You cannot tell at all. I'm
an oil painter and have a pretty damn good eye and this guy did a fantastic
job. He's a true artisan. It looks like the stock blue paint job and it
matches!

So if any of you Seattle Afisti need paint work done I would strongly
recommend Mike Larramendy. His place is called ONP Auto Hobbies, Inc. I'll
be at Ferraris on 12th this year so you can check out his work.

Later,

Damian
