Well, there's light at the end of the tunnel..... Took some pics of "Hemi" yesterday.... It was a great site of seeing her fenders and doors on again, albeit it's temporary.. Smitty's making sure all the lines are good, he'll remove, paint the portions needed prior to bolting on for good and painting....  Whew........... A little before, during and now......

  Looks good. I know what you mean, progress can be slow and painful, but it's fun when you see something done.

Glad to see Smitty coming through for you Troy!  I know you have been hoping for a lot more a whole lot sooner, but at least something is happening now.

Guess you'll have to stay on him to keep the pace up, right?

Looks like that guy's got a few irons in the fire around there, to divert his attention.
Looks good, though. Smiley

I'm still waiting for the dash harness.. It was "supposedly" on back order for a week.. I'll be calling YearOne tomorrow.. I'll be sending off my dash cluster for the amp-2-volt conversion at redline this week... Didn't think it would take this long, but with a family with a tiny baby, it's amazing how time gets side-tracked with mom-n-dad things to do........

Some more.. As of Monday.. It's further along since then.. I'll have more next week......  Took over the hood and trunk hinges along with the trunk torsion bars.. He'll be bolting the sheetmetal soon for alignment.. Paint is oh-so-painfully close.....

Trav,,
Not sure, but whatever shape it's in, I'm bring it..... Also, I"m planning, if it's rolling, trailering her to Boerne with my C500......  The seat cover and door panel sets have been ordered via Nick's Classic Parts.. I have the headliner already and I'll be getting carpet pretty soon..... I'll send the dash cluster to Dave P..... So, things are coming together..........
