    Came to say the same, but that’s congrats due to you as much as anyone JJ!  In fact it’s due solely to you, Franz, and Cole. It was your expert skills, talent, and knowledge that won that award! I hope you are as proud as anyone!
    Thank you!

    And yes! Quite a day for me- my maiden voyage was just 25 miles from Verve Vintage Motorworks in Orem, UT to Riverton UT to show at the Utah Classic.

    She’s gorgeous to look at and drives like a dream. Quite and smooth and comfortable. Not a thing missing or out of place and all functioning as though new. Did I just drive away from the dealership in 1962?

    Surreal!

    How’s about some “At Home enjoying it” photos?!?!?!?!?🙏🙏🙏😀👍

    Definitely will post some of those… once it’s home!

    There was a little to finish up, like engine, brakes, fluids, and wiring, so it has stopped off in SLC on it’s way home!  2 weeks and counting and she’ll be at home in the garage!  Can NOT wait!!

    You must feel as good as Tom to have this one off the list!!!😃👍😃👍😃👍

    I hope KCW is proud and JJ is as psyched as I am!

    I have to admit, I was overwhelmed and shed some tears of joy when I saw it in person. 🥹
    It’s such a beautiful bus!🥰

    I can’t thank you enough for all the attention and hard work you put in to it John! 🙏🏻🫶🏻

    And Audrey- thank you for documenting it so diligently along the way! ❤️😍

    Y’all ROCK!!

    Door handles and ignition arriving soon.  I’ll send tracking info when I have it.

    The bumper trim -do we have the rubber inserts for it?

    Also, are you able to fab a upper back seat bracket to match the single you have and paint them both?  That would be a relief to roll it with the seat secure.

    Which brings up the middle seat hold downs.  I think I had lots of them… hopefully in your hands?

    And then, I think I saw hubcaps in the earlier pics.  Let me know if not so I can order some.

    So dang close to completely complete!!

    Love it love it love it!

    Whoooo hooooo! How do I even yell and cry with joy on a text forum?!!

    This makes me sooo happy!

    but not the pick it up and haul it away part… you’re not going to deny me the celebration with everyone at the shop are you?!
    This is epic!

    And for the record, I’ve had this in a project  state since I bought it… 28 years ago!!
    JJ, you’re going to close a 28 year project for me! Don’t miss out on the last 24 hours please. I need to celebrate with YOU!!
