Don’t start that rumor…. I have been trying to work my way out of working…. I feel like I a going the wrong way here. 😎

But SUPER happy with the progress…  I haven’t ordered anything, or needed anything yet… 😎  But I think today I will arrive at a point where I will need some seals for the window frames.. we will see….

Hope Kelly has seen it… I think he lost his phone or something.

Retired 😎 😎

Would the inspection covers look better black? I think they would contrast nicely with the other black features.

Early convertibles had color matched gas tank and inspection covers….like they painted the trunk with it halfway assembled.

Kelly still hasn’t seen the progress..     it’s the most progress we have made for at least a year!!    Bummer.    He must be Uber busy!!!!  To not have 10 extra seconds to post up..

I know he has been busy helping his dad. Hopefully everything is 👍🏻

I could go with that if it were a stock resto.

The momentum of last week has all fizzled away now…   I guess I will load this rig up to go sleep in the paint booth…. 😎 😎 😎  Cold storage..  burr…

Part of the big move around today included pushing the vert into the paint booth for a little break and space in the clean shop

I ordered engine tin to start putting the 2054cc long block together. Empi has been out of 36hp doghouse style fanshrouds for like a year now.
