MF that looks great!  Remember to use the bondo glazing and spot putty to fill in those pesky little holes where the bubbles were, it works great if you havent ever used it, and its like 2 bucks for the tube.  Or, you could be so great at it that you dont need it, thats probably the case.  Let me know if you ever need help with a big job, I might be able to help if I get the time!   :working:  :cheers:

I hear ya, it's been hard to get out on mine too. Had a rotten case of the flu, after a month I now feel like going out and working on it. Plus as you said, lots of other things going on right now. We'll be looking forward to those updates, maybe I'll even get in a few of my own pretty soon. I'm starting vacation Wednesday and I plan on doing a ton on the car.  :2thumbs:
