Oh Man, Excellent work!

Is this going to be the giveaway car at RRT canopy village in Kalamazoo this year? I'll buy at least a dozen $1 tickets

Yes it is! And by the way, the trash can is full.

Metallic grey sure has changed from the lacquer days, hasn't it? That deep shine looks fantastic with the bright trim in place  

You are gonna turn some heads with that ride, man. And when they get past the initial flashy stun and look at what it is... they will realize how much talent was involved. Awesome.

Is that 3" masking tape?

Is that 3" masking tape?  

It a wheel chock.  

Looking good Don. Are you on schedule or are you falling behind for your intended schedule? I don't see interior or glass yet...

I emptied the trash on Thursday. I don't have a schedule. Too busy working on daily drivers to schedule this car. I picked up the dash and front fenders yesterday. Hope to have the fenders on Sunday. Glass guy is coming this afternoon to start the install.    The interior guy was supposed to get with me this week. He is MIA. Yes that is 3" masking tape. I was buying supplies for this build and bought some of that. Not a give away car but as Bob suggested I think I will be setting up a table and selling tickets for rides around the fair grounds. Need to recoup some of the investment.  
 Anyway, Thanks for all the compliments. I think my idea of leaving the outside of this at pretty much a stock appearance really highlights the color with the trim on it.
 Scott had suggested this grey when we first started tearing into this rusty POS. I was at the painters and saw the color on a Dodge truck. Brian said that's the grey you were talking about. So I said go ahead and paint it with that. It was a one minute decision. I was worn out trying to make a color selection. It looks like it paid off this time.
 I owe the flat and smooth part to my pal Scott, myself and Brian the painter.
Now I know why my elbows started hurting about a year ago.
I'll post more as I forge ahead!
Bob,
The paper on the floor came off the chrome. I had it all wrapped up for safe keeping. It's still on the floor. Maybe today I'll sweep.

I agree with your thought on the outside. It seems that all graphics can date a car somehow. Plain color lasts a real long time.

What he said ..^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^    
 But hurry up & sweep...You never know when Glen may visit .....  

Bob..

[348tripower]

Still have to get the hood lined up better but its coming along!

[UGLY OLDS]

Boy ...That is looking GOOD..      Nice clean floor in the last shot...Glen will approve .....  

Bob..

Looking good. Looking out your window and seeing snow makes me glad I'm where I'm at.

[purplepickup]

I'll bet you're being REEEL careful with parts & pieces at this point. Don't want to nick that shiny paint. Looks real good Don );b(

It has to be pretty exciting in anticipation of cruising this work of art. I bet there are lots of "little" grins involved  

On the tape, I just don't think I had ever actually seen 3". Thats a smart thing to have handy right about now.
