U-WHO if I were going to paint my car a college color it would be Maze & Blue GO MICHIGAM :lol:  since two of my daughters are grads for there.. and I spent 25 years living in Michigan...

Depending on the outcome of tomorrows game maybe I won't drive my car for the next few days...

Very nice, and even though I'm a Wovlerine fan also, The Maise and Blue couldn't look as nice as the color you picked!!!!

I must say it does look like Tenn Orange, but I wear my Michigan as much as possible...

Thanks Guys, after three years it's almost complete

It sure is fun to be able to finally drive your car after all that work.  Congratulations.  I took the roadster out yesterday and I am going again today.  We had record high temperatures yesterday and it is to be nearly that warm today.

Have you found out the answer to the question "Whatillsheedo" yet?

Ill tell ya John if id had the bike or the car here id prolly been out for a ride. Its been nice here too. Last year i think we had snow at this time :!:
Im heading out to fool woth the roadster again today. It worked out to where i got time till the afternoon hunt to play. Ive got to do some more measuring and stuff in the gas tank area. Sumpin doesnt look right there but its fixable I think. I figure if I was to finish the hood with the hagan stuff for the side panels id be ready in a day or 2 to pull it apart for sandblast and paint. I think im gonna follow thru with my plan for the hood to do it like the coupe on the side panels cause its easier to adjust and remove if need be. Im still not happy with one side panel but oh well. Im just too picky my kids tell me

Its kinda hard on the hunting though .. were not seeing anything and its prolly cause of the warm weather. I kicked up 2 walking out 2 nights ago but i didnt see nuttin last night. It was and has been beautiful in the evenings though. Real nice sitin in the stand.
