Default Restoration Update

Lots of progess this weekend - as you can see via the photos, the rear of the car is complete. What you cannot see are details in the interior, like mouldings, head liner, and the like that really don't photograph well.

Very nice- the really fun part is when you start putting the trim parts on. You feel like all the other hard dirty work is finally paying off.
