Well , we are getting close. Dropped the seat frames off at the powder coater yesterday, and the unfinished wood bows for the top arrived a week or so ago. Lots of little things (like getting the cracks in bakelite (sp) on the steering wheel fixed up).
It has been a fun 5 years - but the end result was never anticipated to be at this level. There have already been some discussions about putting 5-10 miles on the thing and having it trailored to Barrett Jackson. The economy being the biggest hurdle. Well see. Enjoy!

Beautiful restoration Scott.....
My wife and I are going to LV next week for the B-J auction, so I guess you're not going to bring the car to this one? BTW, is it a 150?

Beauuuutiful car Scott! I still lust for those cars. I almost got one when I was 19, my Dad said "that damn thing will nickel and dime you to death, but it sure is sexy". It was only $1200, but that was in '77.
Rich, ya got it wrong Lucas isn't the Devil, he's the Prince! Prince of Darkness!

Not enuff of an Jag aficionado to tell if that is a XK120 or 140, but that is damn fine work. WAG, 140.
