Christmas in April. I think TC was sorta in shock when we got there and saw it. We turned into the parking lot and it just glowed. Whata sight to behold.

Looking excellent, TC! Attention to detail is it's own reward. That, and watching others drool in envy.

Reading from the beginning, around post 47 when it went into the paint shop...then life changed, the economy changed....what a ride.
Congrats for squeaking by and keeping this project headed in the right direction... Boy way URY close on his prediction (post 50ish) on when it would come back from the booth....just a year late. At this point, its kinda pointless to ask because the car will have 30k invested in it by the time your done...but I will ask anyways. What is the back story on this car and what did you pay for it (and all the parts etc...) Rich |
