Wow- making nice progress and looking great. Very sorry to hear about your finger Andy. I hope the surgery goes well and you recover quickly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

This car just looks so great on many levels.
Just noticed this.... You've got later window (scissor) mechanisms inside your doors. Did your 71 come with those as standard? My 71 has got the older (screw) style mechanisms. I'm sure yours will work a billion times better than mine....ha. Again, what a great looking color and attention to detail on your car. |

One of the changes I wanted was the crash-bar (later) doors for the added protection and to get the later window mechanism. My car came with the early doors and window mechanisms. I hope once it is all buttoned up that is a detail that will be unrealized by 99.99% of people. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

It's really hard to tell from this picture but, I think I see a spec of dust on the floor. If not addressed, it may contaminate the car.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) This is one of the upgrades I wanted to do last time I painted the car, and bought all the parts for...until I found a NOS early top. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) The only clue I think they could catch is the felts. Nice upgrade! |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) The only problem I can see is that this car is way too nice to drive.
Awesome job, you must be very, very happy. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) |

Thanks a lot. I am very happy. The Justice League (Jim, Kent, Andy and Bob) are all off the scale of perfectionists- so that works well for me and my OCD.
I can't wait to be able to walk out into my garage and find the car missing because my wife took it for a ride! She drove my last Six all of the time. Given the level of detail on this car, I am not sure she will take it out alone for a while, but I am sure she will drive it. Her daily driver is the '10 C4S 6 speed, so I think she will be fine with the Six. I just pray I am the one to get the first chip, ding, dent, scratch on it because if it is her, she will really go into a deep depression about messing up my baby. Hey, Kent is only 6 hours away.....
