Progress Update

I look at the car and think "man, I'm never going to finish." I look back through the blog and find that I really have accomplished alot in the last 18 months. If you were an ant looking up from below, you would think it was a new car.

The interior is now clean and painted with the wiring harness installed and ready for interior installation. All of the structural work is complete with the exception of rebuilding the passenger door and the front nose skin. Brakes are complete, engine is complete, tires and suspension are complete with the exception of installing shocks. It's actually starting to look like a car!

I really wanted to get to a point of painting by the end of the summer however I've been told that I should make sure that everything fits well before I do so. This would include installing seats, dash hardware, bumper hardware, rocker and bumper decos, and the engine. Everything except the engine will come back off before I send it to paint. With this in mind, we may be looking at another six months before the paint work takes place.

I received 2 used bumpers from GG Tyler last week but I am still in need of bumper brackets and over riders. I have a replacement nose skin coming in from WW Autowerks this week as well. Once the passenger door is installed and the new nose skin installed, I'll get started on the body work.
