Well......... The car is finished but no pics of that yet 
Cant load pics to Photobucket using aol as my browser dont know why?????????
loaded my other couple hundred pics that way before. So I am able to load pics through IE 7. But again 1 at a time because I can't get the bulk uploader to work spent about 4hours fooling with pb before trying to load through IE 7.
I guess 1 at a time is better than nothing
these are the pics of work done Saturday & Sunday to bring this thread up to date..........
Here's Mike getting rid of a squeek in the top hinge
rocker covers.....
mirrors........
Cutting the flappers for the front seat track feet.....

How are you ever going to bring yourself to drive that on an ordinary city street? And you are going to increase your insurance coverage before you drive it again.....right?

Thanks Guys............ I ........REALLY......... appreciate the kind words and encouragement throughout this build. It feels funny not having to work on the car after working at such a non stop crazy pace these past months BUT ITS DONE
and I have to give ALOT of THANKS and CREDIT to Mike Gianini my body man.........
for putting up with me and my **** methods. but when working on a car like this .....if you don't give it that little bit extra, When your done...........it's just another car.
and I can't forget to mention and THANK........ my painter Mike Goveia for mixing a modern version of code 988 and laying it on perfectly
And Frank Cioli for stripping, prepping, and priming many pieces of the car
and Joe Ethier for help stripping the body
I still need to tint the windows and that is why I haven't posted any pics of the finished car yet
So........... untill then, stay tuned

I don't want to be rude with my question...and you can PM me if you'd like to convey this in private....so here goes... How much did you pay for your paint job? I'd like to compare to what I spent on mine.
Again, great job!

Gorgeous. Great work, great job, great colors. Late model seats and steering wheel looks snazzy. Nice thread, thanks for the pictures.
