      • Thanks guys ! We're getting there step by step. I stopped by the shop this morning and they were prepping the next sections and pieces. Should see more color soon . I still need to locate a complete set of thin body side molding.

            • I stopped by the body before work today and to my surprise they painted the body. . Getting closer and closer . Please pardon the IPhone quality, I just couldn't leave without any pictures.

                  • I agree. Incredible work. That is one heck of a paint job. It looks better than it could have when new.

                    • From the looks of my Paint and body guys progress on mine (which is none) it is going to take at least 6 months to get my car painted. I looked back at when you took yours to the shop and it looks like it has been close to that for you. I just hope that my end results look as well as yours.

                        Thanks Chad, I know your car will be awesome. It's long process for sure. Especially, if the shop uses it as fill in work during slow times. I stopped by today to drop off the tail lights I rebuilt to be painted. I'm still blown away how great the body work is. I'm hoping I can bring it home soon. They had to get a bumper support bracket fabricated that supports the rear bumper. Mine was rotten away. Once they get that they only have the front and rear fascia. Then they can finish the trims and spoilers.
