What the car looked like this morning
  What it looked like by the end of the day    It all started last Tuesday when I got the call that the paint shop had an opening. Every night this week I've stripped off parts and this morning I drove the bare bones car to the shop. One part after another came off. The only thing I have left to do is pull the fuel tank so I can get the wipper assembly out and pull the air intake "mesh". I'm having a tough time with the interior trim for the targa bar. All but one of the screws is stripped and I guess I need to drill them out. We can paint around the peice, but it would be nice to have it out for resetting the glass. |
