I picked up Pepe from the paint shop yesterday, just about 3 months after it went in.  I'm digging the new paint job, even if it looks a lot like the old one lol.  There are a few teaser pictures several posts below as attachments (thanks photobucket), or follow the link to the album that has all the pictures from the re-painting process.  He's a happy (and awesome looking) Kammback once again!
