What was a good painter has turned into a fugitive.
Sal is hiding out. Been taking money and not starting jobs and now left people's cars in the lot. Two lawsuits are trying to be served on him but he is hiding out in Tijuana and laying low in Spring Valley.
If you have material, parts or cars there you had better get them out soon. Just a heads up.
Mario Gomez aka King Mario aka Mario the Great, passed away a couple of days ago. Mario was THE BEST in the business. All you have to do is look at Lifestyle's paint job to see that. He was an artist with un-matched talent.
So please, dont confuse Mario Gomez with Sal Manzano, there is no comparison.

Originally posted by JasonJ@Sep 11 2006, 03:46 PM~6150893 Well, Sal does lag on peoples shit really bad.... ive seen it too many times to count.... i never had that problem with him myself, but my situation was a little different than most.
I just dont like some jackass coming on here making up a name just to spread rumors about one of my friends, i hate that shit. If you got problems with him... fine, just tell the WHOLE STORY and no one would say shit probably. I started to delete this topic because its bullshit, but i left it up to see if the guy would say something else. Ill be in San Diego in a few weeks, i was really hoping this guy would comment back, but hes kinda quiet now. :dunno:
need to go visit sal too the guy is a cool guy, but bad management skills. promises too much and takes on too much work. needs to get out of the situation he is in and start fresh.

painting is an art. You judge an artist by the work he does. Not by comparing him to other painters and their work.
I really doubt Mario Gomez's legendary status is helped by bashing other painters. I am sure he had the same mentality as most artists. "I do what I do and its there if you like it and its there if you don't".
Painters, and guys that look at paint jobs, are on different levels. I'm sure all the good painters respect eachother. We should talk about each guy and his creativeness and ability to put in on a car in his own way. Everyone has different tastes.
is a guy who likes Picasso over Van Gogh a douchebag ?? doubt it.

Well said, its not fair to compare Sal to Mario Gomez, both great artists in there own way, just different styles....if we all painted the same it would not be kustom.....
