THREE THINGS- haha... ANTENNA- --- REAR WINDOW TRIM --- WASHER HOSE CLIPS UNDER HOOD -
THATS ALL THAT HAS TO GO ON TOMORROW! Then an extensive cleaning with a Q-Tip! The car will be at Monster Mopar Weekend starting Friday in Indianapolis in case and of you might be going there. The stripes look great, it's officially a AAR again. I will post some photos then be back on later tonight.. I need a nap!

While a stock concours-style restoration is not my cup of tea, the attention to detail and flawless execution of the restoration is amazing.  Fantastic job by you and the shop.  Congrats and good luck at the shows!   :2thumbs:

Get use to it.  You better start now building an extra room for all the trophies you'll be collecting in the coming years.

I'm happy it did so well on its very first time out. They had me going for ten minutes that the car took fourth place!

Rob from The Collectors guide shot a bunch of photos too! I'll post pics of that later, i think you will be seeing more of this car!

Thanks for the good words guys, Im still in awe over the best in show. I think there were 600 cars there. !!
