Getting so close now.
The high solids clear has sat for months and has now been de-nibbed , wet sanded and buffing is underway...
Will possibly get it back later this week or early in the new year.

Thanks, yes I am excited to get it back.
It was actually finished before they closed for Christmas but I decided to leave it at the shop till early January as we will be having 20+ people at home for Christmas and with all the parents kids etc etc I thought it was just safer to wait :-)

Craig thanks for the help once again.
Today I removed the a/c parts to install the a/c delete cover.
I did it as per your instructions and it was done in a jiffy!
What did you do with left over wires from a/c?

As for the wires I can't check it till I get the Vette back in the new year but I believe I just unwrapped the existing harnesses and then re wrapped them with the wires hidden inside.

This morning I rolled it out of the garage and gave it a good wash to remove all the dust and build up from its time in the panel shop.

Really came out very nice. All of the hard work making the repairs, a quality shop for the paint and now the excitement of having the car back home. This should be the fun part for sure. Exciting just watching the progress.
