You are probably closer than you think. Once the body is on and paint done it goes pretty fast. My problem is that I do other cars from insurance companies and my own car is the last to get any time. It reminds me of when I was younger....I bought a house to fix up from a well-drilling company. The guy had lived in the house and drilled wells for a living,but never hooked up the toilet or sinks in his own house. I also drive an old diesel truck that needs bodywork that will likely NEVER get done before it sees the scrap pile. The Buick definitely gets priority when time allows,and I am glad to have a place to hide for awhile to work on it. You need to post some more pics of yours because I have not seen it lately and not likely to for awhile, Dan
