Thanks for the nice comments, no will not be ready for May show. The assembly will slow down, have some other projects to attend to. Some car related some not so much fun. Hope to get it on the road by this fall. Thanks Bill.

Well the car is home. Still need to do some minor adjustment to the door and front fenders, to get them kinda right. We started this body project about Nov 18, and Rob worked on it until know except for about a week, I helped do some stripping and grunt work. Thanks Bill.

Bill, I see you've jumped on the red wheels & whitewalls bandwagon for bodywork and paint.
Car looks GREAT.
