I don't have any knowledge that could help you, but I want to let you know I admire your efforts. Let the Texas chapters know if you come down this way for a visit!

I almost thought your license plate read "FOB". Best wishes Budge.

Budge, The FRN may be able to handle the donations for this project. It get's difficult if we raise funds for other organizations that are not incoporporated or not non profits (who do we send the check to?), but if we take in the funds and pay the vendors directly, we may be able to make this work! If you can come up with some hard numbers on the cost, etc., I'll run it by the FRN operational committee...I think they'll go for it!

Get a Jeepney -- er, Freepney. They are old, rattle-trap, dependable, fun and get turned into real works of art. The amenities include two benches in the back. Restrooms are trees along the road. Here are some specimens:
Freepney1
Freepney2
full frontal Freepney
On second thought, maybe your Freepmobile is better, Budge. If you get a fund going to fix it up, I'll contribute.

Abner knows about painting flags!
Texas bumps Arkansas for a great idea!

Hey Budge! Sorry it has taken me so long to get to this thread but as you know, I am in Colorado and have had other things on my mind. :-) I still think a mural would be the way to go and I just know there has to be a FReeper or 2 out there who have the talent and would be willing to take the time to do it. Maybe not in Arkansas, but what better excuse for a road trip?

Ah, Columbus Day, Rush complains about it, but I get to listen to him today. I took a look at your post here and decided that I had the time to help out a little.
There ya go. Nice having a day off.

Sounds like a great idea to me!
When I put bumper stickers on my car, I first stick them to a magnetized sheet that can be picked up in any hobby or photography shop. Then I can remove them easily. I think this would work with the signs, also.
If your address hasn't changed, Budge, I'll send you a bit of a donation in the mail.
The three chapters of FR in TX are talking about having a joint meeting at the George Bush Library at TX A&M in the near future. Perhaps the Ark chapter can join us for this. We haven't finalized our plans, yet, but will let you know when (and if) we do.
Good luck with this great plan!

This is a most fantastic idea! Please stop by Chicago any time. I'd be happy to coordinate a gathering. If its summertime, I've got the deck, grill and pool to support a large group! Now, about that paintjob...
American Dream RV's has a phone number you can call. They have a Body Repair Shop and they mention painting and graphics. They are in Leander, TX.
Performance Painting is in Elkhart, IN.
BodyWorks USA is in Tampa, FL.
I found these using Google.com for my searches. You can probably find your signage and wheel covers too.
See you in Chicago, '03...

It doesn't have to be painted. In fact, it would look better if it wasn't. The logo can be reproduced in all of its original splendor.Actually, any decent sign shop with a good graphics program on their computer, with the right printer or plotter should be able to do it, lickety split. There are even some Kinko's shops that might have the capability. Good luck. Great idea. Great story! Thanks.
