We've been working on the car as much as possible, between real life requirements and, we're finally ready for paint. We're going to shoot the jams, front and rear trunk compartments, cabin and engine bay and then we'll send her off to the shop for the body.
Obviously a major milestone is being reached here. I'm going to post a full set of pictures on my blog site but, here's two for now. Attached thumbnail(s) |

That is indeed a major milestone and you should sit back and enjoy it. Sounds like you are approaching it correctly too. I look forward to seeing more pictures of it once collar is laid down.

Congratulations. You should celebrate with a Cigar once it's in paint. That's right up there with becoming a Father. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Excellent achievement, a real milestone.
Also, I must applaud your choice of color . Connoisseurs worldwide agree, only Light Ivory will do.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) I'll agree that it's a great color but, right now, that's just the catalyzed primer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) It's going to be redone in the original L97B Ancona Blue with white interior. Totally STOKED on this! |
