My 300D is painted.... a video

We had some time to kill while taking a break from filming "Cutter Mantooth P.I." so we did this. My '79 300D. The left side trim wasn't on yet but the rest was done. Just foolin' around. Enjoy...

I didn't pay that. That's the markup..... inflation ya know! LOL Actually, not for sale. Thanks for all the compliments. I am really only the producer, director, grip, writer and MB owner. Gotta give props to my boy Brannon McLeod for the videography! Check out his other movies on Vimeo.....
